Surf Boat to River Cruiser
12 January 2019
Fitted with a 1950s single cylinder engine, the surf lifesaver boat will have a new lease of life as a river cruiser . . . . .
Derek wanted to create an ergonomically efficient boat, with an aesthetically satisfying engine box that took styling cues from the post war period. The whole unit is easily removeable and the “table top” opens up to reveal the detachable fuel tank and spark plug. The rounded section folds forward to reveal the big iron flywheel. Ian, the owner, will complete the varnishing work over the next few months while the installation engineering is finished – we’ll keep you posted.
