Restoration of the Nellie Melba

11/12/2023

Poor old Nellie went for a river run on Saturday, unfortunately she had a breakdown and we pulled up to point Walter jetty for some sunbathing 🤣🤣 she will be fixed up and going again soon, still having teething issues and unknowns as she was left to sit for 9 years with no maintenance

So we have some footage and stills coming today from under the boat. Thank you to Carlos from Subsea Hull Clean Perth for helping us out. We will addd a proper tag when we do the full post. We are a little under the pump with a backlog of footage and trying to sort out a 24/7 stream of the harbour.

Well Nellie headed out to sea for the first time in years, she went well and all systems worked accordingly, definitely in desperate need of a hull clean, but she went well in the circumstances, 3.7 mtr swell and 50+kmh winds still managed to go out and down into the harbour and back with no issues, needless to say very happy with the successful run of the old girl 😁😁

Well Nellie is up and running, just need to source 1 part for the anchor hydraulics and we're off for a run down the river, who wants to come 😁😁
