Thanks Bruce.
Doug Fielding and his team at Regatta marine based at Gold Coast City Marina are the team. Doug and his 3 are are great team and he also looked after Tidahapah every year from 2013 on wards until I sold her.
Great timber boat builder/repairer with a good hold of modern materials.

A big job Ben, but not unexpected in the areas being rebuilt. It’s good to find clever shipwrights who can work quickly and efficiently.

Keep the post updated, I’m keen to follow progress.

Looks like a great restoration Benn. However, even though not cheap, you are clearly having a ton of fun doing it.

Being a life long masonry, concrete and tile building contractor... just gotta say... not that I mean anything other than "been there - done that"! Close the big door if an OSHA official comes anywhere near on site. That scaffold arrangement is amusingly remarkable! LOL
