Hello. My name is Mike and I’m a new member here. I’m based in Ireland. I’ve just procured series I wooden GP in need of refurbishing. Its from about 1988 and was home built/finished in Northern Ireland to what seems like a high standard. It was left out side under a <span style=”line-height: 1.5;”>disintegrating cover </span>for<span style=”line-height: 1.5;”> a number of years and the decks look </span>rough<span style=”line-height: 1.5;”> </span>particularly at the bow. <span style=”line-height: 1.5;”> Transom needs a look as well. The rest seem very sound so far.</span>
Could anyone advise where i might find information such as building instruction that might guide me as I head in to this project. I’ve seen good info on many other aspects of the boat both here and on the yahoo site. The nearest I’ve seen to building info is Mike Smith’s Wooden Wayfarer restoration manual. Is there something similarly informative for the GP14.
Thanks
Mike Flynn
