Found the photos taken in 1991 at the airshow commemorating the formation of the Bairnsdale RAAF base in 1941.
The boat was fully seaworthy as a result of a full rebuild at the Paynesville Slip-yard for the 50th anniversary. It is shown on my trailer.
The second photo shows my 1916 Albion with the boat in the background.
The third photo is of one under way and as Lang said, they should get up and go.
The last one shows that the frames are not too bad.
The Paynesville Men's Shed visited last Tuesday and may be interested in taking on the project. (Many more negotiations to go, fingers crossed.)
Regards Rick.
