Re: Shetland 570 in Africa
£585 was a bargain price. I wonder how it got all the way to South Africa. You've made a lovely job of her, looks great now. My next boat is going to be a 570 god willing.
Re: Shetland 570 in Africa
Well done. I'm very impressed with the interior. Do you use it on the coast or inland?

A wine-farmer from Somerset-West (Cape Town) imported it some 40 years ago. I bought it from his son.Shetland535 wrote: Thu Mar 23, 2017 8:23 pm £585 was a bargain price.

The boat has a Category E certification because it only has one engine. So I mostly use it in coastal estuaries and sheltered coastal waters.vreagh wrote: Thu Mar 23, 2017 8:39 pm Well done. I'm very impressed with the interior. Do you use it on the coast or inland?
