Cutting out the cockpit to make room for a bigger engine. Incredibly heavily built, the step is 12mm thick! Worth using that laminate, cockpit drains, and intricate curves, leaving only the flat run to bridge the gap. #boat #sailing #yacht #yachtsurveyor #boatsurvey

Signs of neglect: Mold and damp. Unrepaired damage (in the bow). Heavy corrosion of immersed parts. Walk away. #boat #boating #yacht #yachting #survey #marine #boatsurvey #yachtsurvey #marinesurvey #marineindustry #corrosion #boatbuying

Recent Insurance Survey of this rare and heavily built Barberis 36 from 1980. A few anomalies like a slightly bent chainplate and a pitted drive shaft but a solid vessel and well looked after. #boat #yacht #marinesurvey

An early start for a bit of boat noodling. Lots of investigations here. Another example of a boat left afloat and unattended for extended periods, and likely floating in water charged with a leaking current..... #boat #boatsurvey #marineindustry #yacht #marinsurveyor

I've just read a Condition Survey report where a steel Bruce Roberts sailing yacht is constructed of 'reinforced fibreglass' and needs to be 'monitored for osmosis'. #marineindustry #marinesurvey #boatsurvey #yachtsurvey #boating #professional

Before long there won't be any alternative living options. If only the UK government stopped picking on the little guy and started taxing big business fairly. standard.co.uk/news/uk/london… #boating #canalboat #liveaboard

Week was off to a great start, then work was hampered by heavy winds. So I turned my attention to my boat, re-engineering the engine bay for the new engine, then I slipped, and ended up with 3 stitches in my right palm, and put of physical work for a while.... #boat #boatinglife

Stainless steel 12mm shackle stamped with '1 T'. There's an immediate stress raiser here. See the two fine cracks emanating from the head of the '1'. This cracked shackle being the sole link between the anchor and a 40' cruising yacht. Goodbye boat. #marinesurvey #marineindustry

Depressing scenes yesterday on the coast. Thousands of wet wipes littering the beach as far as the eye could see. So much for wet wipes breaking down! Miles de toallitas tiradas en la playa ¿de dónde? #torredebenagalbon #rincondelavictoria #malaga @aytorincon

And it's goodbye to Valerie, my, or Periwinkle's, longtime, kinda trustworthy, 2 stroke inboard petrol engine. An absolute classic, but not for the Med. Nothing gets the heart going like this old girl dropping revs at the harbour entrance, and I won't miss that. #boats #sailing
