She originally had a inboard in her but was converted to an outboard when Nicola Byrnes family brought her.

Decks all removed ready to glue and re-fasten loose framing and transom

The transom was not attached along the deck on both sides

All the joints along the ski pole deck were loose most of the screws had snapped and the front seat back was just hanging there

The forward-deck has all been removed ready for new steering wheel and mounting blocks.

Sealing up the underside of the deck

Starting to lay new decking in mahogany and Kauri.

All finished

She was powered by a big white fridge which has finally died after two sinkings.
Guisippe is now going to have a Yamaha 65hp installed about 100kgs lighter than the fridge it should make a huge improvement to her performance
