Yes it has been the only ST at Sandpoint, Dumbarton for some time, apart from possible boats buried under the sports field!

She is ST1500.

Do you have a boat too?

Best regards
AndyS

Sorry no boat at the moment going abroad soon for a year so not a good time to take on a project. Pity with some of the chances going about.

Going to Dunoon Wed will get pics of what is left of the ST..

Regards

Jim

Just seen this on Ebay, looks like a lot of work needed but plenty of potential!

She had no shafts, no engines (other than an old generator). The only thing we got off her were a few port holes.
