The Papendick Family's restoration of our James Silver "Western Isles" Motor Sailer "Chance"

These updates are of the restoration of Chance our James Silver Western Isles Motorsailer, now that we have Chance at Titchmarsh Marina in Walton on the Naze Essex.
In this video we show what work we have been doing on the doors and hatches which were removed from Chance earlier in her restoration. Now we have room in Simon's workshop to lay them out and varnish them. We are taking the opportunity to do this work while it is not possible to work on Chance down at Titchmarsh Marina. The doors and hatches are getting their first coats of thinned varnish s we build up the layers of Varnish until they are at a stage where they will be ready for fitting and getting their final finishing coats once the rest of the cabinetry is finish and put back in the boat when the hull repairs are finished and the inside of the hull is painted or varnished depending on where in the boat the pieces are fitted.
