I’ve fitted the deck and painted. I have also painted the internal shelves for the electrics and added my name and build details to one of the deck beams! The deck is not glued down yet. I have used plastic board and painted with a tile paint to seal.

Could resist a quick check to see how she looks! The real Emily is happy with daddy’s work!!

So Emily helped me spray the hull and I like the colours that she suggested!
Name and registration boards will be added later..

So everything is finished (maybe a little more detail but trying to stay away from the rust!!)
First check in the hot tub and I’m pleased

Really pleased to see Emily PIII on the lake within 3 months of starting her!!

Bench is starting to get a bit full so one of these has just made an appearance on eBay!!

Nice time at the lake this morning with Emily on the controls! Added a handrail and some extra buffs to one side

Added a net drum aft, will leave it unrusted for the first trip! Have made it so I can link it to a motor at some point..

Latest edition to the fleet, 16th scale beam trawler Emily James joined Emily PIII on the lake today.
