Well, tried to watch the first episode and got bored, can never understand why people waffle so much boring stuff on vlogs.
Pointing at devices in the wheel house and having no clue what they were, I don't either, but I would make the effort to find out what they are and talk about them.

I cant get on with it either - only managed a few minutes across a couple of episodes but it is abundantly clear they are very very green, I think there are going to be some very hard lessons for them in the future. Not sure which episode it is but look out for them running a petrol frame genny inside the boat, utter madness! - that gives you an insight into just how little a clue they have of what they are doing and have taken on.

I had the money for it but not the full restoration ( say around £100k ) which i wanst bothered about as from research the hull was/is meant to be good. well its still l float after all the time sat there lol. If i got it i would not expected me to get it finished to a mint standard but more a life long labour of love to just restore and chill out on while learning new things as in wooden boat work which i have always wanted to do as and when as moorings are cheap etc. I offered the new owners help and they accpeted so maybe if i ever get myself sorted i will. I am struggling to do my own boat so any other boat is down the line, way down. And thanks for asking but still not good, pissed off most time as i have a boat now i have wanted for years and cant bleedin do it. Again thanks to T she is helping me now wth it, we removed the fittings and next windows. Ill update the blog soon as i hav egot some good news on it giving me less to do PS that boat is ding dong amazing hope thye get it atleast useable

On the topic of boats did you see that the big old superyacht we had a discussion about did actually get salvaged. Quite interesting story actually. Not sure what is going to happen going forward but I will always remember when I suggested using it as a TB club ship you were really into it. Of course I was joking and even if something did happen I would let you down as I always do with everyone else but interesting all the same to notice that it did actually get back upright and who knows what will happen to it. Nice old boat www.llyshelig.com/

Yes. The boat I was certain was going to be scrapped. I still think it might well be scrapped and unsure as to what the motives behind it are. There must be nicer boats to spend shed loads of money on. Yes it's an interesting boat but seems to be too far gone including some unbelievably nasty modifications. kris said scrap too.
