Gday from Perth WA!

[Ricochet]

Hello everyone. I have browsed over these forums for the past few years searching for information on anything from opinions on compressors and spray guns to surface finishes. I now have a reason to become a member! I've just bought a 1960's plywood speedboat and will be eagerly reading and asking many questions in order to return this old girl to her former glory =)

Cheers


Chris

no doubt you'll get the right advice here.:2tsup:

How about some pics of the boat as you fix her up?:photo2:

cheers, billy:fireman:

Thanks Billy! I've just posted some pics of how she looks right now, and of a fully restored boat of the same model. It's in a thread in the wooden boats section, under building/repairing. May take a while to show up, as it said the message with the pic links must be approved by a moderator before it is put up.
