These are some pics of my launch. I have gone for a part painted/part natural version and an alternative stripe which I saw in another post and quite liked. (captains prerogative)BigGrin








Just the tiller and rope/anchor left. Quality of pics will get better. I'm looking around for a decent camera at the moment. I value the opinions of those on this forum so feedback good or bad is always welcome as long as it is constructive.

Looking good there mate! Nice one!

Just wondering - what wood did you use for the internal decking? It looks like teak.

Regards,
Tom

Hi Tom, Actually it was the wood supplied. I finished it with Homebase colour and wax, Antique Brown.
