Shetland Black Hawk Boat Restoration in pictures

This slideshow shows how I restored a scruffy looking Shetland Black Hawk 19 boat in 2012 and made her look beautiful again (with help from my first mate). Jobs carried out included cleaning, polishing the gel coat on the hull and superstructure, re-lining and re-designing the interior, stripping old paint off aluminium windows, re-sealing, polishing and waxing them, stripping old stain off a lovely set of mahogany doors and varnishing them sympathetically to the original state, new anti-fouling and replacing stainless steel fixtures, servicing the outboard and repairing the white dials. The most laborious job of all was using Nitromors paint stripper and wire wool to strip the paint off the windows. I had to trace the old decals by using the shiny bits of hull that had had vinyl decals on in the past. I then sent these tracings to naughtygull.com who made me new vinyl decals in my specified colour to try and match the original. I sold the boat within a week of completing the restoration and regretted not spending more time on her first. The engine sounded lovely for a two-stroke. I used to see the boat regularly on the River Avon in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire but last I heard she is now being sailed along the Irish coast. You can see a proper video of the completed boat on my channel.    • Shetland Black Hawk 19 - Clover   If you liked this restoration leave me a comment, hit the "like" button and subscribe.
