He figured he'd found a good restaurant as swallows had built a nest there previously. Went bac...

Re: Replace hand rail on cabin top?
7/8 or now 22mm was the most common size used on boats of this era. Would suspect either inch or 7/8 would fit the molding on the roof - they are not that accurate. I used 1inch teak doweling which I probably bought from Caporns - who no longer exist - because it doesn't get hot in the burning sun

Now, I was in the boat building business in those days and to design and build a boat from scratch took months to years. Word around the tra...
