Hi all,

Just joined and thought I would share my little boat as I see its the thing to do haha,

Shes a little Microplus 461 with a 50hp Mercury on the back, she was yellow and filthy but I've spent a few weeks sorting her out and doesn't look too shabby now, see what you think ?

[Saintly Fish]

She looks nice and shiny ! 👍🏻

[Andy135]

She looks great. Very smart indeed. And she looks a LOT nicer than the 461 next to my boat.

She looks great, nice colours, far better than yellow. Thanks for posting. Geoff. ☺️

[Odyssey]

Yes mate, sorry I thought I made that clear hahahahahahaha

[andyO]

It was battered and dirty anyway so once I rubbed it back it needed various filling and repairs so thought I may as well do the whole lot

[andyO]

The Mrs made some cushions for it too which came out pretty good I think

Those cushions don’t go with the yellow?

Ok I’m lost in this colour thing. 
At least you have a backup compass as well now if things get rough.

The yellow pic was before and its blue now

[Andy135]

Looks good in blue Andy. Fingers crossed you can get out in her soon... if this weather ever settles!
