Hendo's Randall 35 Cray Boat complete rebuild, Perth, Western Australia

[Hendo78]

Alas, I think you will regret it when you discover it never dries out and your feet are always wet.

I suggest you just lay it out for the first month or so, before you glue it down.

No worries champ

Miss seeing your daily updates!
Hope you are on an extended Holiday.

Your progress is one of the reasons I enjoy reading Trawler Forum.

You ARE missed!!!!!

Matt either got tired of people asking when he is going to launch the boat or that carpet was so bad ass that he laid down for a well deserved nap.....

Happy Holiday Season to Matt, Felicity, their kin and to all on TF!

Hi mate.
Sorry for no updates. I’ve been so busy trying to get the outside done before I take an well earned break for the year. I’ll post some pics and updates tomorrow for you

Hahaha I’m aiming for Easter now so April 2020. Haven’t taken the carpet to the boat yet. I’ll do that once I’ve finished the fit out.

Happy Holiday Season to Matt, Felicity, their kin and to all on TF!

You too my brother! Thank you for you support and encouragement this year. I hope you have a Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas �� Happy New Year and all the other Holidays.

I’ve enjoyed the “re-build” process and learned a lot. Thank you

Gday folks. Apologies for the delay in posting. I went to the Philippines for a scuba diving holiday and then when I got back I had a bad case of CBF’d but I kicked my but into gear and got going again this afternoon.

Do you still cast a shadow?

It is about time you are back. I missed my Solstice fix. [emoji106][emoji106]

 

[Wayfarer]

Matt! Dude, looking great! How are you feeling??

Lol sorry mate. I missed you guys pushing me along too

 

[Hendo78]

Matt! Dude, looking great! How are you feeling??

I feel awesome. So much more energy and nowhere near as tired as I used to be. I’ve gone from a 135kgs wearing 5XL shirt and a 46 pants to 100kgs wearing a 2XL and a 38 pants and it’s been about 12 weeks. My goal weight is 85-90kgs

Hi team.
Time to vote on which transom name design you like. I have a pic of two options. The third option is no marlin picture.

Colours I’m not too sure about yet. Just trying to work out designs at this stage.

Which one do you think? A, B or C?

 

[Kit_L]

B or C, for me. The marlin does not affect legibility at all in design B, IMHO.

 

[Wayfarer]

B or C for me too. The fish in the first one kinda makes it look like 'SolstiGe' to me.

 

[Gulf Comanche]
