Southace said "No NSW sailor since that HG02 bloke has swallowed up all the oxygen in the "what did you do to your sailing boat"


Great Bloke, but say no more!


well if you look at how many people have a geek in what did you do to your boat there lots of interest so post some photos .
I'm quiet happy not to post any more not a problem.
don't give a rats either way

To I would have loved NSW to post photos as he was updating his boat
When I ask him about how he did his floor it was excellent
Personally I would have loved NSW to post as he went

I had a look at his blog but couldn't find that much info
In just having ago I've made many mistakes along the way and have tried to correct them
And have been thankful of comments
From more experiance people on this site and I
Look up to them and respect there opinions
Merry Xmas and a happy new year to all
I've mainly posted because there alway seems viewers of seabreeze enjoy my stuffs and reworks

Also like to personally thank bubble South Ace
Cisco and Ramona Donkand Spong blob for there help along the way

Trust me HGO2 I admire what your doing to your old tub and log on everyday to see your updates even some nights waiting till midnight for your daily posts!
I wish I had found the forum when I built the Sea Princess I would have done the same!
just take my comment with a pinch of salt dont take it to heart and please keep us posted.

Sorry I upset you two fellows [I think] was all said tongue in cheek

But don't worry I will do a large post on my sailblogs site next month showing the whole one year story!

Was only going to take a couple of months...wishful thinking looking back.
As a teaser, at present I am building a windvane steering device based on the Herbian model,
reckon the glue and paint will be the most costly part.

Hi FreeRadical


I that there were some older quality boats suggested at the time but he was looking for something that was fairly new and he seemed to be leaning towards Jenneau's

regards Don




Bugger Southace, he can find his own boat. The Holland is my dream. Something about that boat is very very nice.




Nice find!! Everything about this boat is nice.

I'm entitled to change my mind! This boat will take me round Australia and beyond. Would a late model production boat do the same? Maybe ! But I don't live life on maybes!
