Thought it was about time I posted a few images of my current ring netter project ... building a 3/4-in to 1ft plank on frame model of the Alex Noble designed and built ring net boat Ribhinn Donn I
Am working off original yard drawings, which were also used to build the Silver Quest, which is now a houseboat down in the Falmouth area
There is a heap of images on the trawlerphotos website tracking the entire build
The build is now well advanced. Lots to do though, however, including wheelhouse, tabernacles, ring-net winch, rudder, etc, etc, etc
10 out of 10 so far JC,be interested to see her finished as she was my first berth.
Hi Dennis

beautiful model
Hi JC,afraid I haven't got any photos ,she was called the Ribhinn Bhan when I was on her and owned by a Donald Macsween.She was a great sea boat,worked a lot of times out at the Stanton Bank,no shelter on her then,just sat on gunnel with a few wooden boxes turned upside down as a sorting tray.Happy days !!
There's a few photos on the other site of her both as Ribhinn Donn and Ribhinn Bhan JC.
Thanks guys
