Hi just wanted to no the best options for buying a shower and sink.where's best place and what would I be looking to pay etc .

OK mate just drop me details and price etc

Hi Richard have spoke to your company and have had a quote thank-you

OK Mike thank-you for asking . And Alan yes very much agree I'm not going to rush buying and will view as much as possible and getting good info is a must . I was in touch with a place down south real diesels I recall and they have a ha2 fully refurbished and a new prm gearbox but 6K abut of a shock lol. I'm having all new bathroom and my hot water system fitted at minute and then paint shop booked in August so I'll either put something in just before or after the paint.

OK Mike if you could pm the details .be much appreciated thank-you

Thank-you all I'll give them a call and also how much is the hrw2 going for.

Ideally I'd like something with gearbox and ready to just drop in and go and looks nice

Ha2 I think or similar

Where is the best place to find a Lister or equivalent vintage engine with gearbox etc as the one I was getting was sold yours andy

Hi all firstly thank-you for replying yes it has a skin tank as at moment got a Ford engine in.nothing special just in it when I bought it. As we all no it's a labour of love but sometimes think selling it might be easier.I'm fairly new to all this so mistakes are made frequently. I will finish it I think as most stuff inside as been replaced with new

At the minute I'm just having a new morco hot water system fitted and then iv got to put a bathroom in . And really need to tidy it up abit get rid of junk iv not took of.it also as a 1958 Rustin hornsly air cooled engine that I need to fit. Apart from that it needs a coat of paint . It's took me nearly two years to get here.(a big rollercoaster up-to now)

Yes it is I moved it to a different marina who I no really well had the survey and nothing wrong with it .just needed a few pits welding .it was a shock as the work only cost 500.

What would this be worth now iv had a survey on it the hull sides are 8 in place 10 bottom and 4 top it's just been blacked and 6 new anodes it's partly done inside and comes with new solar panels and wiring new kitchen. It's 99 build and 57ft trad . Iv seen a brand new build I'd like yours andy.

Somebody must want this lovely narrow boat

Thank-you all so much for your interest and knowledge it means allot.I will get a survey done as soon as iv saved up again lol. I no there's a few deep pits in places and after I scraped all the bubbled spots it's just uneven .and again it's only 18 year old but wasn't looked after before I had it.to my knowledge ten years since it was last out water and blacked

Iv had everything in side hand built by my friend and carpenter.I was told by the yard that it'll need alot of work overplating in areas . And yes iv not even had a survey done.unfortunately iv just given up with it.iv chucked so much time and effort money etc at it. The trouble is I'm so not got the experience and knowledge.I'm hoping someone will take it on and make a lucky boat out of it

I've decided to sell so if anyone or you no anybody 20k it needs the hull doing obviously but then it's just a bathroom and paint.iv decided to sell due to me going back racing

The survey hasn't been done yet and the place where it is has looked at it saying it'll need that amount spending hence my alarm bells.just very worried I might pay for something that doesn't need that much work. Again thank-you for responding

To be honest the boat hadn't moved for many years with previous owners and anodes totally gone.I was hoping it'll just take alittle spot welding but I'm no expert and totally out my deapth with this.the pits are deep but maybe around 15 and the sides uneven . Sorry for not much knowledge I need a independent survey.but again thank-you so much for reply's and help

Hi all thank-you for reply's iv refitted inside new kitchen and sinks new fire surround and squiral log burner reboarded and tong and grooved hand built bed with under storage etc etc.it's deep pitting in areas I think it's down to the surveyor really I'm hoping it's just 3K lol. But time will tell.

Iv a 57 ft trad iv striped it in side and rebuilt and finally took it out water.and god have I a shock it needs replating .it's only 99 build I bought it last year as a project but now I think I'm out my comfort zone if I was to sell it would anybody touch it for 20K as that's just under what it owes me .or do I see it through its all money

Ok cool stuff thank you everyone for assistance in this. Much appreciated. So I've got engine hatches no false teeth yet and good hearing. Maybe twelve month this be different. I will post pictures of it all when I can again many thanks yours andy

Bill thank you that's what I needed to know. Reliable and not going to over heat

Hi all. I'm just in progress of buying a air cooled Ruston hornsy engine. I believe it to be 1958. The only thing I no about it is it hasn't much hours on it and has a fan on front. Sorry if lack of detail but this all I no at present. But my question is what do you think of air cooled engines in boats yours andy

Sorry for the lack of info but all very new to this sorry if wasting your time ill get more info and take it from there
