Looking great . Thats gotto be 20k worth of boat now ,what engine has she got ? Steve. Hi Steve, Fitted last year with a 100 hp 4 stroke Mariner. Great fuel economy and a top end of over 30 knots; but cruises at 22-24 knots for best fuel efficiency. Not sure on the price though. All I know is boat fitting is very time consuming; and as time is money I would hate to be paying for boat builders to complete the list of changes I have done myself !!!

nick, you sure have done the businesss this time - you must be dead chuffed with yourself, a lot of work but the finished product will be someyhing else - not many raiders to compare with yours when she is finished - much to be admired ... well done and thanks for the compass which sharkey passed on to me.

Hope the compass is some use Alan. The boat seems to take forever to get finished ... when you have to do it yourself you can appreciate why finished boats cost so much more than a hull. The satisfaction of knowing that it was your own graft is good though. Right ...back out to lay on my back for the day... antifouling to do...under a trailer
