G'day Ian, Thanks for the comments regarding my yacht. I have just had a browse through your photo's, you also have done a great job. Its amazing what a bit of time and effort (and money) can do. Well done! Looking forward to taking mine out for the first time. Have some finishing off to do to the running rigging and just minor details. Great to hear from you and happy sailing, your friend Matthew.

Hi Matthew - I just checked your photos - she looks great! I love the timber finish - something I have thought about doing. I am just about to head south to Recherche Bay with my partner then when the weather settles we'll head over to Port Arthur - There's a great restaurant just above a wonderful all weather anchorage. We'll try to get up to Wineglass Bay after that but we dont want to bash up into too much sea/wind so it will be a weather decision. Take care. Ian

Hi there Portobello ( Ian ),
I am not sure if you remember me, Amani,( Matthew ), you helped my with some info on the Doven 30. I haven't been on here for a while but i thought that you might be interested in some photo's that i have added to my profile. The interior refurbish has been finished, a while ago now, just thought you would be interested. All the best, Matthew.
