Good Vibes,

 

As much as I would like to see that 21ft Hull flatten a few Greenies again , its time has gone i fear, the whole structure seems to be Plywood only , and has suffered deterioration from the weather.

If it was a Glassfibre hull there may have been a slight chance , but too far gone on the wood.

What about this AceCraft as advertized on Gumtree, also a very old one?

The trailer dress rehearsal

The superstructure was copied from other ace craft found on The Official Ace-Craft Page and a lonely 18 footer down the road from us. (Think its ex-NSRI)

MAN!

Am I eating my words!!!

Your dad is something else!

I once bought a rotten rusted Sunbeam Tiger but gave up on the project...that car still haunts me to this day :(

Agree with BFC....Big Blue will be rare and a true collectable, and she must be itching to be afloat in seawater again

Well done again!

 

Bennie,

That video was taken in Scottburgh

The oke got his timing wrong though....eish!
