History

Converted to 60ft pleasure boat based Fenny Stratford. Present owner bought the boat in a derelict state, raised it, has had the Elm bottom replaced with steel, and has rebuilt the engine, replaced all the shafting, and fitted a new propellor (the old one was only 16 ins!) The current engine is an industrial JP2 (with the flywheel at the other end to a marine one).
