Re: Golden Hind 31 Restoration! :)
Just curious, what does a Golden Hind 31 look like??
The only one I am familiar with is a replica dry docked in London!!

Re: Golden Hind 31 Restoration! :)
The UK magazine, Practical Boat Owner, november 2013 issue, has an article on restoring a Golden Hind if you can get a copy.

This is a little confusing. The one I was about to look at was a fiberglass over plywood construction. Is that the way yours is constructed or is it solid fiberglass hull?
