A beautiful old lady

by Anne Barr
(Baltimore Ireland)

My boat is 100 years old.

I bought her last year, having worked and sailed on her 20 years ago which left me with very good memories.

She was rotting in the mud and I was in need of a home so....

She needs a lot of TLC to put it mildly but she mostly sound.

I am just getting the courage now to re-design her to my liking to get more head-room.

Hi Anne,
Hope all is well with you.

Good to see that you've taken on the old gal.

It would have been a great pity if she just fell apart.

I live on a boat myself these days and live a fairly peaceful life.

I'm teetotal vege non smoker but I've been in a bad state and its a wonder I didn't drown in the Thames or in my own tears, pour me!
