Trojan Boat Forum

When finished....:



...a cold one....together with "the Queen...!

Working forwards by small steps. It´s far too hot for working on the Trojan. Average temp here in Norway, in summertime is usually between 15 and 20 degrees C. But thees days temp have passed 35. And that´s too hot for working. So yesterday and today I have finished the two last layers with varnish,...

Always will!!

Sacrifice my health...? No Senior! But my wife tells me the same. She think I´m sacrificing my health as well. I try to tell her I am relaxing working on the boat. I feel fine when I sit on the chair beside the hull, thinking of all the nice days we gonna spend out in the sea. Fishing.... Sleeping.....

Tomorrow I will start oiling the wood, gonna use something named Epifanes Varnish. Quite expensive varnish, but will give a n...

Hi RWS! Yes, I feel quite well this days. Blood pump is ticking away, as normal. And blood pressure is high, as always.... The Medicine Man (my doc) told me to take care, be careful, and no STRESS! Otherwise I could do as I wish. Like working on my boat, go fishing, but no beer, no booze, nothing th...

What about thees Merlin Marine, 475 Hp??? Could be nice.....
