As you can see from the above photo I was beyond delighted to receive the Classic Boat award 2023 for best restoration under 40′. It surely made up the the many days spend in a hill top cow shed with the wind, rain and snow blowing in on me.

Since then the boat has gone on to race up and down the Cork coast and we continue to improve her every year.

I should have posted this when it happened but as usual the excitement of the win and generally being too busy knocked it off the priority list. So I’m putting it out as a throw back Thursday on this cold and snowy Thursday.

If you would like to have your own award winning boat restored, repaired or built don’t hesitate to contact me, Tiernan Roe, you can call me at +353 86 1586937 or by email or use  the contact page.
