Builder: ?

Owner: Colin Watt

Quote from Colin:-

"I bought Otter with the intention of restoring her. She had rotten garboards and centrecase caused by rainwater. The complete restoration is shown in the photos. She is an interesting boat as you can see from the first photo: halfdecked with a 'cabin' that had enough room to sleep in. But what went over the top to keep the rain out?. Does anybody know who built her? You can follow the complete restoration at OtterBlog."
