The Bristol Freighter of the sea. So many rivets floating in loose formation. Those that don't leak are about to leak. Still like mine though.Quote:

Very surprisingly its not actually the rivets that leak most, I went round and peened the offenders and its been good since, its the hull itself and the stiffeners cracking that is the issue....she is bloody old and bloody thin.Quote:

Simple really, if you want to sell kits put kits on your website and they will come up in google searches, people will buy them,magazines will do reviews,people will put up utube videos of the build and running BUT MOST OF ALL IF YOU SELL KITS PUT THE FUCKEN PRICE ON YOUR WEBSITE!
Things that fuck me off.
Websites that tell me/show me nothing and that is pretty much every bloody boat builder in the country.
Show me a product with no price!!!!:pissed off::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::ang ry::pissed off::pissed off::pissed off::angry::angry::angry::pissed off:
Clearly you do not want my money if you cannot even decide how much of it you want.
Its almost to the point I will buy the first one that has a price on it, cos you know if you have to ask you cant afford it.Quote:

Some get quite enthusiastic about something a little out of the ordinary, gives them something to think about while they're wandering from the shop floor to the office. Emails work well as they can be viewed at a convenient time for both parties.
