One happy chappy!!

Here you can document your Outboards, SIB's and RIB's re-building challenge.
Restoration is satisfying, a great way to learn, and usually a way of getting something special whilst saving money..
Please make a "New Topic" for EACH build.

Well done Frank. Good choice and great match - may the weather gods be with you for an early maiden voyage. And don't forget - 1st inflation in the house, with pics of course

Just fit, when it's snowing outside you do it in the lounge! When alone at home of course! 35mins complete setup with foot pump, I will be looking at the Bravo soon!
