First shell pictures

This post will be a bit of a catch-up for a few weeks, as we have seen the shell start to be built and the engine renovation having been completed as far as possible.


First for the shell, and it's Norton Canes tug style shell, built by Graham Edgson and Tony Bate at Pelsall, at 60' length.  The early stages of the shell have now been completed as per the first real visit early in May 2012.  Whilst it is early days, you can already see the fine steelwork and super lines of the NC build.  The bow has a 5'6" section, together with an 8' tug deck, you can see that the lines will be wonderful at the front.
