Re: Going Coastal Shetland 27 outboard

I realise its a different hull and smaller boat but my Sheltie only ever sees salt water. It is a very sea worthy hull and very stable for a small boat, even in a chop. I did the RYA powerboat level 2 course which I would definitely recommend you do. I have a VHF radio, fish finder for depth and ...

Re: Sheltie age and Colour name?

How obvious is the HIN if there is one? Is it quite a large stamp like the Shetland one?

Re: Sheltie age and Colour name?

Thanks Sue. I had already looked for the HIN but can only find Shetlands serial number stamped in to the top right of the transom. Unless its on the underside which still has some anti foul on I'm in the process of stripping off.

If anyone has any ideas on finding out the age I would be grateful.

Sheltie age and Colour name?

Hi all,

I've had a look in the boat specs section but the thread for the Sheltie doesn't show any model numbers/dates. Is this data available anywhere for the Sheltie?

First boat and its a Sheltie!

Hi all,

Just bought my first boat a couple of days a go which is a very nice little Shetland Sheltie. Not had it in the water yet as there are a couple of things I want to do first but looking forward to some fun in a couple of weeks time.

I'm sure I'll have a few questions along the way!
