T/T Madness

Just brought this back to life after it was scrapped, the valve had already been replaced but with a bit of TLC the rest came up alright

Thanks to Thomas for the Graphic work and transfers

Hi, they are transfers designed and made by Thomas a member on here as he owns a company who makes signs etc.

If you look at my other threads you will see one where we came up with the idea for my other boat, the name on my sib was actually left over from my rib and I didn't want it to go to waste so I got Thomas to do make the T/T (tender to) as well.

I'll try and post a link later when I get the kids off the computer
