Classic Australian Wooden Power Boat Association

G'day Guys
I had my boat sand blasted in Adelaide. I can't tell you what they used but it did eat the timber but because it was 40yrs old it didn't do any harm as it lets the paint get a better grip to fresh wood.
Cheers Chris

G'day Rick
I am sure that Dave would put some big days in to get it fiinished. It's just a shame that I won't be at Narrandera to see it but I might have to take my boat down to windsor over summer and see it then.
Cheers Chris

Dave
You have only got 73 days to go.... or roughly 1752 hours
Cheers Chris

I had my boat restored in Adelaide by Cameron Donladson at Easytiger Marine. Cameron did a fantastic job and worth every cent. email sales@easytiger.net.au

I saw this in last Sunday Telegraph. Dave, do you know this boat?
Cheers Chris

Does it come with matching timber crutches?

Dave
I take it that you won't be towing it with the Falcon this year. Chris

Job well done Dave. You will certainly have an eye catcher when it's finished. Any idea what the hull might weigh? It won't be easy launching it at the Narrandera ramp either.
Cheers Chris

I never forget in 2000 I got roped into be observer for social skiing in an old fibreglass clinker that had 302 V8 and the v drive would make that much noise if wished that I had worn earmuffs. The motor was quiet compared to the racket that was happening between the seats. I think it was an ex race...

G'day Brian
Thats a real mouth full. You will get blisters on your tongue when you have to repeat that 100 times the first race you go too. I don't know what's inside my chev only that it is a used block and Rolco built it.
Cheers Chris
