  1. Hi.Being the boat builder in question I would wish to try put any doubts to rest regarding the paint job we are offering,the company that I recomended do the job for you is www.sgrefinishers.co.uk so please check out their website.All of my previous boats have been fitted out on the water with no problems at all but if you have any major concerns I can put the boat in the workshop for you and then if you would prefer me to hand paint and shot blast then I will do, no probs. Regards.

  3. We at shardlow remember the boat well,Made by Skater Marine,does any body else have any coments.
  4. I believe you are coming to paint a couple of Brians boats, yes, !! Lets hope they are as nice as the first one you did for him.
  5. Cheers I was refering to Ron Grundy, thanks for offer.
  6. Brill, thanks alex. best get some spare split pins then. Where are u in shardlow, Rons?
  7. Thanks all for help, so it seems as though I will go for larger engine ( I will alter order details tomorrow and maybe have it with me wed ). RE the prop is it possible to change that through the weed hatch? The boat is already in the water and I hope to drop the engine in whilst it is floating too. Never fit one before so it may turn around and bite me. Cheers
  8. Hi, Thanks all contributers for a brill forum, I have used this site many times over the past few months whilst I have been working on my sailaway and have now come to a point where I need to ask a question re my choice of engine. The boat is a 57'' Piper Semi Trad with a 17 - 10 prop, and I am going to fit a Vetus Engine. Vetus have said they think their 33 hp engine would be ok but I was thinking of fitting their larger 44 hp but still use my exsisting prop. Is this a wise thing to do? I am concerned that in the future when I sell the boat the engine size ie 33 hp may put people off. Would this be the case? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Chip
