They are being rather forthright in the pictures. If you look at the
deadwood and planking just forward of the prop, it looks like allot of
separation there. And why did the cosmetic part of the bow railing rot? BTW,
redwood is rot resistant, but not very strong - why that selection? As with
a previous email about a fishing trawler, the engine and generator were
worth the price. On this one, there may be a parts availability question on
the engine.
Her beauty is seductive, however. Perhaps our list member who restored old
GB Woodies could comment?

fasteners.
