Re: 12 foot simpkin skiff

the deck has been removed and will go back on again it was in very good condition under 50 coats of varnish and 30 years of dust I was quite surprised.
i have started cleaning the inside of the hull and it looks as good as the day it was built

12 foot simpkin skiff

Hi all i picked up a 12 foot simpkin skiff on the weekend.
Its name is hairy and ran a worked corolla engine it was last raced in 1974 driven by noel potts.
The boat needs some work but it should be 95 percent original when its restored.
Nathan.
