Hi all.

Here are some pictures of my MFV 63 fishing trawler that I’m building from scratch.
A friend owns the trawler and supplied me with the plans.
These ships are trawling at the west coast of South Africa, Scotland and Ireland.

I used marine ply for the keel and hull, planking I used Meranti.

Regards,
Sietse












I got know idée how to get these pictures smaller, sorry about it hahaha

Thanks guys, I appreciate your comments.
As you note I’m busy with three builds, time is a bit of a limit by me as I work for myself.

cheeky BigGrin but i dont suppose theres a chance of buying copy plans, ive been trying to get plans for 'MFV MAUREEN' she is still sailing out of dartmouth as a liveaboard diving vessel, i myself have had this honour and want to build the model of her, she has had a couple of refits but the yard that built her no longer has plans as they were all destroyed by a fire at the boatyard. she is a 68' vessel built in a scottish yard but i could adjust plans for length and beam if only i could get hold of a set living in hope scooby diver!BigGrin
