Well, It was a slow weekend on My Girl this weekend, but a busy one on Wairiki. I left Friday morning for a few days RnR. But only made it as far as Islington Bay. So i faffed cleaning Wairiki, exploring the Island and reading books. Sunday I got back at 11am so headed for My Girl and started glueing skins on, I got 8 more on, and then ran out of staples... so I’ll grab more of them tomorrow. I then sanded it fair and filled the staple holes.
This site is dedicated to the restoration of My Girl, a planing launch built in 1925 by Dick Lang. She is a square bilge vessel based on a design by W.H.Hand. Originally powered by a 6 cylinder 90hp Scripps engine she was capable of over 18 knots.
