13th December 2015
'Boleh' is just about ready to be
delivered to a sail training trust based in Falmouth
who will be her new custodians.
All the last little jobs that
constitute a seemingly endless list can take a long
time to tick off the items from!
Update 1st May 2016 'Boleh' is
finally completed and delivered to Falmouth to start
her new life as a sail training vessel.
Congratulations and all the very best to George and
Henry Middleton and all the team of the Boleh Trust
for having achieved their objective with the boat -
some journey to say the very least!
Update 21st January 2021 'Boleh'
came to Birdham Pool on 14th December 2020, to have
her mast assembly un-stepped then be lifted out and
blocked off in the yard. We will then, over the
Winter, check over and re-varnish the spars, carry
out the general hull maintenance, remove her
original generator set that provides the power for
her electric propulsion, modify existing genset
bearers, then lift in a new, more compact unit ready
for connecting up. This will be
the first time her spars have been unstepped in five
years
Update 30th April 2021 With her
mast assembly repaired and re-varnished, and all the
hull maintenance completed, she was re-launched, the
mast stepped and her new Fischer Panda generator set
installation completed by their engineer. We then
carried out some modifications to the generator
enclosure/ cabin table assembly that became
necessary to accommodate the new genset
installation. Boleh left Birdham
Pool near the top of a nice big Spring tide on
Tuesday 27th April, to go back to her berth in
Haslar Marina
Update 23th January 2022
Boleh arrived at Birdham Pool 6th December 2021 .
She is now blocked off in the yard, and we have
started on the schedule of work we have been asked
to carry out this Winter. She had a full season of
charters last year, and is looking good!
Update 29th April 2022
Boleh left Birdham Pool on Tuesday 19th April 2022,
ready for a busy new season, after her Winter refit
ashore with us |
