Hello Mr Speedy, is the boat on a trailer ?

If so are there any members able to run a relay down the M6 to London. If about 6 members did a strip of the M6 each it would be in London in no time.

I can do from the M1/M6/A14 junction to Dunstable L&D hospital (about 60 miles) no problems, any other takers.

Can a relay be organised.

Thanks for the offer but we managed to get her moved this weekend  Grin
We have decided to give her the full works so all the varnish is off on the decks and sealed with boiled linseed oil . We will flip her over next weekend and do the hull and then flip her back over to do the finishing on the topsides etc .
