We had a boat built by Aintree. The joy of seeing her grow from a base plate on the welding shop floor to the fully built bat (oh all the choices to be made on colours and fitout!) on the water was an amazing and fulfilling, exciting adventure. The lads at Aintree were so enjoyable to work with as well. Aaahhh memories 🥰 Sincerely hope you get the same joy and excitement out of your new build.

Two of my favourite KZbinrs are building their new boats right now, the other one may be a 75 foot, many-million-dollar world explorer yacht (so also in steel incidentally) but this little gal is just as exciting. Congrats on the start of the build and yes, I'm sure she will be very much uniquely Lorna by the time she's finished.

If you really want to make it YOU, then name it with Lorna In the name. Like Lorna Dune, or Laughing Lorna, or maybe Pink Lady? Even “P.L.L.” for “Pink Lady Lorna”. Dave is a great friend, but if you paint it pink…it should be a feminine name. Oh, heck, just name it Dave!😂. So looking forward to seeing your new boat!

"Lorna Doone" is the obvious choice for her name! And it is nicely ambiguous. People won't know if the name refers to the fictional heroine or the Nabisco shortbread cookie. Even Wikipedia has two different entries for "Lorna Doone". Love your channel (even if you think this idea is rubbish).

So, Lorna, I presume you have reliquished your London mooring, which was probably very expensive ... 🤔 Are you going to have it moored permanently once you have decided where you want to be based? Or move around a bit in that particular area ?? How much was the London mooring, if you would like to share 🤔 Just like a campervan build, (please go and watch a few ..) having it done professionally will cost you a fortune ... why don't you just get the insulation, lining and flooring done and then get a Carpenter to fit it out with YOUR colour-schemes, it will be much more personal to you then ... and I would have to say that those swatches that you showed on the video are absolutely **gross**. I am sure you can do much better than that, and it will be miles cheaper. (Just because you've got the money, does not mean you have to spend it ). It's never too late to change your mind and pull back from Aintree. I am sure they will do a wonderful job but you are certainly going to pay through the nose. However, I am very excited to see what you have done ... Judging by Dave's comment here, I think he is in love with himself, since he is voting for himself 🤣🤣🤣🤣. NAME THAT BOAT: What about "It's Mine" or "Water Glider" or "EL JAY" 🤔🤔🤔😄😄😄 HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 🎄🎄💕
