Boats on eBay

Some nice boats on eBay at the moment. This beautiful Thames skiff is the product, I suspect, of David Winspear up near Whitby. David is a craftsman of the old school and builds his boats by eye.
What looks like a Salter skiff tricked out with all the add-ons is for sale in Bridport. A bit OTT for my taste - the foredeck seems to be made of decking - but you've got to love the cushions.
And finally the Claydon skiff Myrto, which I wrote about recently here. Some dramatic pictures of her in action - she would be a great addition to any club's fleet offering safe, stable but exciting rowing.
