Dear reader, the restoration will cost a lot of Time, Love, Care and money too. But I think in the end it will be very statisfying. After sanding the underwater ship, a quick survey learned that at least 15% needs replanking. So please follow me on this journey, your upvotes and comments along the way will be most appreciated and encouraging. I promise I will do my best to keep you updated with postings, starting first with the history of the yacht. I hope you will enjoy it!
A worthy project!
Thank you!
