Friday night I took the brass bits and pieces for the rear hand rails round to my mate Bob Abell to solder up for me, my soldering is al-right in the hull out of sight for wiring but on this important item it needed a lot more expertise than I have !. So it was a call for help to Bob and he's not let me down, look at this ! what can I say but Beautiful and I might have to go as far as saying

They are going to look the Bees Knee's on the boat and a shame to hide them under the seat piece supplied with the kit.
Certainly living up to his name of " Bob The Builder" and I'm waiting to see his next boat build project when he decides what its going to be.
Will show you some of his earlier paddlers in a future blog.
In celebration added this video
