Introduction

Hi everyone.

This is my blog on the repair of my 21ft plywood boat "Marama". I have rescued her from a life of slow decay rotting away under the trees at the family farm. She has a bit of rot in her and will need some extensive repair before being put back into service. I searched the internet for someone who had carried out similar work, but the web is dominated with fibreglass boat repairs. So I thought I would start a blog to document my rebuild of the Marama.

So follow along and see the trials and tribulations - and hopefully witness the phoenix rising from the ashes.

The first lot of pics I have are from when I first collected the Marama. The boat was free - my car however, overheated towing it home, resulting in a replacement motor :(
