Mate what a boat 🛥

[@paulwatson4304]

I have seen this boat in the harbour in Mevagissey, first class craftsmanship, very nice

[@POLESONMARINE]

Thank you @paulwatson4304. I enjoyed my visit to see the cat in the water and get a spin in her this summer. Its sister ship is underway now in the workshop, and it is staying here in Shetland.

Love watching these build videos! Nice boat.

[@POLESONMARINE]

Thanks Jim. I have designed and made around 60 boats now since my grandfather teached me to draw and make the first one. I have thousands of pictures. I will try keep it up. I have 2 new boats in build just now.

Thank you 👍

[@DanLance100]

I absolutely love watching your videos!!!! Can you show us your plasma table sometime ? :):):)

[@POLESONMARINE]

Hi, I will get a time lapse if I can. The shed the plasma is in isn’t very glamorous.

[@DanLance100]

What will be the maximum speed for this boat ? These "build" videos are terrific!!! Thank you for taking the time to film and edit them :)

[@POLESONMARINE]

Hi, the boat is getting 30 knots with twin 100hp and 17” pitch props. There’s a lot of playing about to do with it. The hull is carrying weight at speed very well doing 18 knots with around 1.5t deck cargo easily.

Excellent job sir what welding plant are you using

[@POLESONMARINE]

Hi Alan, I use Warrior migs by Phil Weeks welding machines made in UK 👍. Thanks

[@hungryhil]

Hi Tommy your videos are great, do you sell boat kits too for self build, or do you just build to order?

[@POLESONMARINE]

@@hungryhil I build to order and i sell kits for my little boats atm. I am looking in to selling my bigger boats as plans in the UK initially. I have all the boats nested in cad files that could be cut on any 3mx1.5m cnc table.
