Lugger First Look, Clean and Prep - Part 1

I get the lugger out for the first time and give her a once over, checking all the parts that came with the boat. I then set to giving her a good clean whilst checking everything's in good working order. She's very dirty, unloved and hasn't been sailed for a long time, but i'm pretty sure she's a bit of a golden nugget underneath. 00:00 A Lake Bala welcome to my new Lugger! 02:24 The plan today 03:43 Unpacking the boat - Whats inside! 05:06 Checking the rigging 06.41 Hull condition 08:26 Checking the Gelcoat 09:19 Assessing the trailer and winch 10:30 Seeing if we can buff up the gelcoat 13:52 Checking the rudder and rudder slot 15:16 Checking all the kit 17:27 Stowage and forward bouyancy tank 20:45 Cleaning the boat What to look for when buying a Drascombe Lugger - https://www.drascombe-association.org.uk/pdf_files/secondhandtext.pdf
