Boat Plans Bateau | Weekly Overview from Bowdidge Marine Designs

Boat Plans Bateau


What a week … and we had SUNSHINE for a change!

You all may have noticed that we’ve updated the look of our Website. I figured it was time for a change and also to add a few more new features, as well as this “latest News Blog”.

We also had another “Latest New Launchings” from Bruce who built the Mushulu 14 !

Our latest Design “The Black Label 30” is now under construction and we’re looking forward to the first lot of pictures to come through.

Nathan, who is building the Black Label comments:

“Gday Fellas!!!
Thank you all for your kind words of encouragement, and I’m sorry I’ve been so slack posting over the past two weeks. Since I started, in those two weeks I’ve only had 11 hours on the build (all at nite after work) I haven’t even had a weekends work on her yet because I HAD to go camping. I say had because, I’m usually dead keen on the outdoors but there was something in my shed that didn’t want me to go camping!! Anyway this weekends gunna just be for the boat - my jig is finished and I’m hoping to finish cutting all my temp frames out today, which I might add, is a task in itself. They are freiken huge!!!!!!!!!!!
Will post photos tonight so - stay posted!

So, well keep you posted as his build begins

We hear from David and Sue from Paulownia Paradise that the Melbourne Wooden Boat Festival was a great success with many enquiry’s about their timber and also about our designs.
Unfortunately, I got word this morning that Sue had a major fall and broke both her arms. So we wish her all the best and ....get well soon Sue.

                   We also wish our good friends, Ross and Rhonnie Lillingstone from Bayside Wooden Boats, who were caught up in the terrible Qld floods all the best, as our hearts go out to them with what they had to go through, as the floods went through their home, destroying their cars and other damage.
He writes:
Here are some photos of the flood damage at our place in Esk.


It was difficult to pick photos which give a realistic impression of the destruction to the creek environs - unless you are standing there the scale is difficult to comprehend. In the photo you can see Rhonnie looking at where our bridge used to be, taken about five days after the flood. She is walking down to what used to be a beautiful grassed bank with lots of thick vegetation and a huge mulberry tree - now all gone!
Anyway this gives you some idea of what went on, and we consider ourselves to have been some of the lucky ones and to have come off lightly.                                                                                        Our flood repairs are going slowly, but well, and we now have a 300m x 5m track into our place which doesnt require a creek crossing. We are in negotiations with the owner of the property concerned, and will hopefully be able to purchase the strip, allowing us to develop it into a permanent driveway. Still havent seen an insurance assessor, so the inside work is going slowly - rubbish piling up on the verandah.

However, we are still smiling!
Ross and Rhonnie

So our hearts go out to them as well and if you have the time, support a fellow Australian and wish them a speedy recovery via email:
Email Ross:


We hope you have a great weekend
Have a good one !
Regards
Mark
