new skiff

Postby rayza1 » 30 Apr 2012, 19:10

Hi Guys, was having a look at the new skiff and found the name WOODEE on the transom, does this a ring a bell with anyone?
Will include a piccy of it upside down (probably no help) Ray

The skiff disease is catching! Good one Ray - do you have a launch date in mind?

Hey Bob, not only do i NOT have a launch date, where to start is also something i'm stuggling with. Would love to find some history and maybe put it back to original. Cant wait to get started though.

Welcome to the skiff land Ray. The 6 or so years should go by in a heartbeat!
Sorry I missed wetting the sheds head, I had to work.
(I hope the visitor is not in the way)

just rip into it ray, strip all the poo off it, rip transom and bearers out. start stripping paint then start polishing and resassemble. should be pretty easy :P

i looked into the name abit and couldnt find anything. ill have a chat to leo nankervis soon and ask him more about the skiff from ballarat that was black and ran a holden motor. thats where yours came from and had a 253 in it so could certainly be the same boat. if you need a hand let me know and i can whip down and help out easy enough..
