Well out of the blue my dream boat appeared, so here she is.
I'll be sailing her north the next few months and may need crew,
Whoo Hoo McN. What a great looking boat she is. Well done on grabbing the opportunity when it came along. Happy sailing.
Very nice McNautical, many happy days to come aboard her. Illustrious name too, a famous one was HMS Raven, a 14 gun British Royal Navy gun boat in the 1700's similar to this one!
Wow! lovely classic Nordic style. There is something about a classic boat which lifts the spirits when you look at it.
All set for some blue water cruising. Congratulations, and I wish you much enjoyment.
Gorgeous! I hope you have a wonderful journey north. I'm sure you'll find many people wanting to crew with you.
Congratulations, perhaps you could get this fellow to polish the brass? Though I reckon he would end up overboard pretty quickly

considering it's only got 1 hull, it's a very nice little ship !
congratulations.
I'd be preparing for lots of admiring looks anytime you enter a marina.
Love the galley taps.
Lovely boat!
check the forestay fitting on the bowsprit for cracks. I once re-built one which had a tiny crack in the end of a weld but the entire inside of the weld was eaten out by crevice corrosion. Just recently i was looking at another Hc and checked the same fitting out of curiosity to find it had a small crack in the same weld also.

Hahaha Overboard... I don't think so...
Well done!
She is a great looking boat, I looked at her myself twice and was verrrrry close to buying her...
All the best.
Thanks everyone. I'm pretty chuffed. She'll be a step up in the learning curve for sure.
She wil be kind to you. I'd say she's heavy and forgiving . Look after her. She will look after you :)
