Merope Pease - Racing Day 4

Merope Pease - Racing Day 4

This boat has been made from part of a large former pilot boat being scrapped along the River Tyne last year.   Different parts of the boat had been painted many times during its lifetime.  The boat had been used for many years as a houseboat and moored in St Peter’s Basin.  It was a major operation to salvage as much wood from the boat as possible without getting in the way of the men chain sawing it up!   The boat is designed to either stand or hang as you wish.  I love the distressed paint layers in very nautical racing colours!
