Don't be daft Andy, he's still waiting for it!!! Geoff.

Well I wasn’t going to bring you into it at this stage Geoff, but seeing as you've chipped in.......... I don’t have it yet Andy, I’m still waiting for Geoff to finish it!! But I know it will be well worth the wait.👍🏻

Just to keep you in the picture Neil, I made the mould yesterday and laid it up today. I demoulded it at teatime and it looks fine. On Monday I shall trim it to size, cut the apertures and polish it. It should be in the post to you by Wednesday. As I have said before I personally do not usually do any laying up (too messy), but 2 weeks ago my friend who has the FG business came off his push bike on some ice and fractured his hip. He is hobbling about now on crutches and is unable to do much so I had to grin - (grimace) and get on with it. To make matters even worse he has sold his factory and we are moving to another unit. You can imagine the upheaval as he has been in the current unit for over 40 years, and like myself has never been able to throw ANYTHING away on the basis that it may come in handy one day!!! Geoff. ☺️

Thanks GPS for your nice comments. I would just like to say that I am just making a new helm instrument panel which is exactly the same as the previous version, but hopefully with a better finish. I am sure that Neil will be quite pleased with it, but I know that he really would like a cherry wood grain finish to match the rest of his boat rather than just a single solid colour. This is something that we cannot achieve with our FGsystem and is the reason for him looking to get it hydro dipped. Geoff.

It is a shame Andy doesn't work for the constabulary ........... you could call him Duracell 🤣
