Early 2009 saw me buy my first sail boat. It's a Cole 19 with a fixed keel and 4 berths.

Over the course of about a year, the yacht was stripped down completely and cleaned inside and out. Along with this, some painting and repairing was carried out. All the timber work was redone, new electicals, lining and some new gear have been fitted. It's been a learning curve and a challenge at times, but definitely worth the effort.
