À propos de ce bateau

Because of my love of the Fairey brand of boats, I had to get hold of a Veron Huntsman 28, and this is one of two that I now own.
The Huntsman 28 is in my opinion, about the prettiest of the Fairey range of boats, even though some of the others are better sea boats.
This is the one of my model boats that I want to get on the water first (eventually! 🙄)

    Hi Will,
    Re "Too many projects, a lack of time, and needing to prioritise jobs in general is my enemy."
    Like you like me!🤔
    My German mates have a solution, if not very productive😉

    Translates to -
    So much to do, so little time. Aw heck, lets leave it!
    Cheers, Doug😎

    Hi Will,

    Why not set yourself a target - such as to get the Huntsman 28 ready to drive by the end of this month?

    That should focus your attention - especially as you have so many other boats to work on - and (of course) many other “real life” things that have to be done as well !

    I just need to have a look at them all Bob, and see which requires the least amount of work to become a usable model, then go with that, no matter which one it is.

    Too many projects, a lack of time, and needing to prioritise jobs in general is my enemy.

    I'll get there, eventually 🙄

    Maybe you could try tossing a coin to eliminate various models until only one remains - and then fix that one !

    …..or choose one that has very little work (of the type that you fancy doing) and get stuck into it.

    You could run your Huntsman 28 without repairing the side screen if you didn’t fancy making that repair at the time…….and as soon as you see it running on the water it will give you all the inspiration to need to rush back and fix the side screen 😂

    Hope to see you afloat sometime soon Will,

    Bob.

    I need to give the port side screen and surround a little TLC, but yes I agree Bob, this would be a pretty easy one to get 'working', or maybe the Stiletto, or ....🙄

    This could be your first model to get into the water Will.

    It looks like all it needs is for you to install some fresh working radio and ESC with your choice of battery and get it going.

    Not too much work to do to get it running, and once you start to drive it you will wonder why you hadn’t done it a lot sooner.

    ….but I would check the girl on the deck to make sure she is sober before letting her loose on a moving boat - she looks positively unstable 😂

    You had a tranquil childhood in a lovely house set in surroundings that most if us can only dream of Will.

    Your friends may not have been close enough to call on quite so easily, but it doesn’t seem to have done you any harm and the other benefits are the ones to remember.

    Very happy memories Bob.
    Yes the nearest village was 1.5 miles away, so I didn't have friends 'next door', but I did have great fun down there, especially once I was old enough to go out on the water on my own. 😊
