Redesigning and restoration of a Murray River Cruising Boat

Chris came to Duck Flat Wooden Boats with plans to fix up an old riverboat hull he had bought.

Duck Flat contacted me for some help

I helped go over the boat and work out how much it had deteriorated. Basically everything above decks was in poor condition but the inside of the hull looked OK – at last as far as we could see.

Chris spoke to Duck Flat about a major restoration and the Ducks asked me to do some preliminary drawings for the interior and some basic idea of the exterior appearance.

I have put together an article that explains the process on my website.

There is some chance that this boat might be for sale in its current state which includes an uninstalled Mercruiser inboard and the drive leg.
