What sort of cladding did it use?

Waterproof and mine proof titanium, but the dope forgot to fit the scuttle plug?

Everyone can take the piss all they want.

Its all very funny until it happens to you.

Here's a pic of one of my small restoration projects from last month.



I feel for him

I should add I did ask suity to install his BPM system, just a month earlier, the insurers are still trying to work out whether that had any bearing.

It's not an aircraft carrier, it's the new Thames Estuary airport.

what a bunch of 70 year olds have claimed to be working flat out on the EU but forgot to patch the hull so it will be flooded shortly?

I thought you were a bremoaner that is far too honest.

Spent 3 years 8h/day renovating, yet didn't bother with a fresh coat of paint...

Yeah it didn't look overly 'finished' did it...

Not sure whether those yachts have a single or multi skinned hull but the few times i did something like this on smaller dinghies the best option was to put water in the boat and see if it came out whilst on dry land - because then you could tell whether when you put it in the water the water would come in.

Having said that bit of a shame for the fella!

Should have known better than to invite you to the launch ceremony.
