Shetland black hawk, advice on rebuild.

Post by Pjv444 »

Hello can anyone point me in the right direction, I am trying to purchase pram hood poles for a shetland black hawk.
Shetland said they don't have them at all.
or can anyone make them on here. ?

another issue I have on the black hawk, I took the material off around the windows, has anyone replaced this before? I am wishing I never removed it. I would appreciate any Ideas ?


thanks.

I believe Shetland sold the moulds, drawings etc for the 570 series of boats to Dolphin Marine. They might be able to help.

Just found this:

"Hi. My name is Steve Pike, and I am the owner/ builder of sports cruiser manufacturer Quayline International Boats, based in Poole. We now are announcing today the purchase of the moulds tools from Shetland boats (James Reinman) for the Family Four . The boat will be manufactured under the Quayline brand and will be known as the Quayline F4. Details will be available on our website www.quaylineboats.co.uk next week. All spares will be made available as well, including canopies/covers as we manufacture these ourselves.

We also have the former Dolphin 16/19 moulds, which you may know as the former Shetland Black Hawk hull designs.

Let us know how you get on with relining round your windows. I've been thinking of replacing ours 🤔

I am totally refitting a Shetland Blackhawk too, I had a new cover from titan boat canopies in Huntingdon. They did a great job on the cover and the poles.
