Like I said——— EVERYONE knows !
Another day, another forage, Bloody Thursday again ——— should stay home really and make progress on the Magoon/Langham collection but the boot sale calls . It’s like a drunk being offered a beer——- addiction I believe is what it’s called!
Windscreen is all froze up so I have some de icing to do first——- if I get anything you’ll be the first to know.
Hi Jackie
did you find out if the P1 hulls have had a redesign at the last rebuild or are they the same as way back when they were the Honda race boats?
Clearly they got new deck but the running surface?
Never did Pilgrim——- five will get you ten they’re old!Quote:

Rightio Gene——— I’ll put this one on the back burner——— got more than enough going on with the Magoon boats.Quote:

While it ain’t exactly galloping along——— progress is being made!
Been awake half the night thinking about the cockpit glass——— done a dummy run, but it was crap and even I couldn’t get away with it.
Did the three rolled up curtains in white handbag leather——- came our a treat—- quite chuffed with those——- dead authentic!
As usual I’m struggling with paint———a lily white base is hard to get right on an open grain chunk of English oak.
Reasonably well satisfied with progress thus far——— Spotlights —— radio masts —— Radar. All went like clockwork, deck rails and decals as well as the plexiglass, could be a tad more mind taxing.
Still, nobody said life was easy——— it just looks that way ‘Cos I’m fat and happy and I woke up ready to take on the world again this morning!
As the frog said——- “IT AINT EASY BEING GREEN”.

You will need ten V-6's for the two Citcorp Travelers
I am sure I finally have the complete list for ALL the boats running the inline 6 powered Magoon boats--Mercury factory must have put on an extra shift to keep up with the demand------(and spares)
I will post soon, Jackie
