New Pilot cutter keel laid





RB boatbuilding (see www.pilotcutter.co.uk ) has been awarded the contract to build another pilot cutter. We are fortunate to be working as part of John's team on such a big project.The enormous ekki keel was laid down early this year. She will be modelled closely on the succesful 'Mischief' and will have larch and oak planking on oak frames with copper and bronze fastenings. Fitted out for charter around the Solent, she will have berths for 10 guests.

New Norwegian Faering Launched



The sun shone as we launched this new 16' Oselver faering for a bristol based client. As you would imagine for such an elegant craft, she rows beautifully. Again this work was done as part of John Raymond-Barkers' team at RB boatbuilding.
