Hi all im a new member from Bucketty nsw.

Does anyone recognize her or have any info?
She is called Ghost and was moored in elizabeth bay in Sydney apparently
She is 5.4m long with a v8 inboard ( 308) and a early leg.
She has a glass hull with timber deck. ( riva style)
Thanks in advance

Hi Greg,
Ok thanks for that , i guess im in the wrong group then sorry.
Worth a try
It looks like i was adding the pics correctly but they were too big.
I will have to try again when on my desktop.
Cheers for the advice.

Welcome. Good luck with finding her history.
Re: hi from a new member! ! and does anyone recognize this boat ?
Thanks guys.
She has had some money spent on her in the past but been neglected by the last owner.
All electrics work, have new trailer , now the engine and then leg and then paint and timber.
Hopefully it all comes together eventually.
