I filmed that fisher from my fisher while fixing the engine

They are a hansome looking boat, wish they had them in these parts. Did you keep the Minstrel as well then?

the minstrel in on the drive under a cover - when I am a danger to myself in the dinghy I will sell the fisher - uncover the minstrel and keep her in woodbridge marina as a day boat. The fisher is a tough boat that soaks up bad weather .... but the minstrel sails like big dinghy.

but I am rich in hapiness - we have room for 3 tents - and a downstairs loo. relatives and their friends come here to camp, sail , paddle, catch crabs and eat lots of outdoor food. I am full time bosun

Been looking at one made in 1991, probably in better condition than yours but need a bit of work as well. How much is a fair price for Fisher these days? They are rare in my part of the world. How much fuel burn to be expected?

Ah, we need to put in a light switch, first thing remove the curtain rails, hatch blinds, mozzie screens, deck head.....it looks like a normal boat job to me.

OH NO, you have let the bodger loose on your boat, whas that a wise decision? ha ha

even bodgers have to do maintenance - 28 year old engine, original 45 year old gearbox. Wiring and plumming and fuel line and cooling water circuit all original The boat has been owned by eight old men - Terrible thing to contemplate. However she now has no diesel leaks, the exhaust hose has been replaced. However, I have had some wonderful sailing out of her and there is more to come. I do not worry too much about ancient diesel related gubbins - I have an outboard ready willin and able the next time the volvo stutters or spurts.
