introducing StoneRoad

[StoneRoad]

A very longtime lurker, finally getting up to introduce myself.
.
Have been involved with two boat restorations so far ...
firstly; a 1909 built rowing lifeboat - the "William Riley of Birmingham and Leamington" - based in Whitby, and often used for fundraising, primarily for the RNLI.
secondly; a Miller Fifer motor-sailer, which was re-launched at Whitehaven just before the festive season in 2015.
Upcoming restorations, will be picking any one of three small boats ... one will be a rowing tender for the Miller, another is a Drascombe Lugger and the last one is a Windermere built power boat.
.
Have helped restore plenty of other things ...

Hi and welcome to the forum, your projects sound very interesting. Sounds like we now have some good knowledge on hand.
As Colin says, photos are always well received!

Best place to look for images of my restorations (and a load of other things) is my account on Ipernity.

This is a link to the folders of albums ...

The rebuild work is mainly in the "Marine Division"
and "Emoyeni" has the more recent images - she's a motor-sailer, but tbh mostly motored.

Enjoy having a look around !

Hi, and welcome to the forum. Lovely to see those pictures of the MF, and what a super restoration. With a serious restoration project like that I would like to see a few "before and during" pictures, but I have little doubt that there will be some amongst your albumns. Geoff.
