The first stages of a new 8ft tender and the later stages of a restored 8ft dinghy which a client brought to us to restore

The new 8ft tender starting to be laid up with the first of three layers/coats of white gelcoat

This tender is going to be a rowing outboard tender when it is finished and will likely have a mahogany gunwale like te restored tende we have along side ths tender in the workshop.

this tender came to the workshop as an abandoned wreck which had been used as a garden flower bed in the local town. 

The owner wish to have it restored so his young family could used in and around the local creeks and rivers. It has been a long term project of the owner, as much of the work as been undertaken by himself with guidance from the owner of the yard. It is  now in its final stages and will be used over the rest of the summer.
