- This slideshow shows how I restored a scruffy looking Shetland Black Hawk 19 boat in 2012 and made her look beautiful again (with help from my first mate). Jobs carried out included cleaning, polishing the gel coat on the hull and superstructure, re-lining and re-designing the interior, stripping old paint off aluminium windows, re-sealing, polishing and waxing them, stripping old stain off a lovely set of mahogany doors and varnishing them sympathetically to the original state, new anti-fouling and replacing stainless steel fixtures, servicing the outboard and repairing the white dials. The most laborious job of all was using Nitromors paint stripper and wire wool to strip the paint off the windows. I had to trace the old decals by using the shiny bits of hull that had had vinyl decals on in the past. I then sent these tracings to naughtygull.com who made me new vinyl decals in my specified colour to try and match the original.
I sold the boat within a week of completing the restoration and regretted not spending more time on her first. The engine sounded lovely for a two-stroke. I used to see the boat regularly on the River Avon in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire but last I heard she is now being sailed along the Irish coast.
You can see a proper video of the completed boat on my channel. • Shetland Black Hawk 19...

Excellent work
Cracking little boat, glad to see you brought another one, I miss your boat maintenance tips with Fizzy
Instablaster.
GREAT VIDEO LOOKS CLASS
Love all your boating videos. Very inspiring and useful. Thanks! I own Black Hawks smaller sister Shetland F4 and enjoy boating a lot! Slowly its time to upgrade to something bigger but rather towards a fishing pilothouse boat than cruiser.
Brilliant work will do the same with ours
Great little boat, I've still got it. Spent a lot of time on lough corrib with her.
Out of interest Adrian, what's the top speed you have achieved with her?
@@consumedbynature hi. I'm not really sure I presume around 25 -30 mph on my own when it gets up on the plane. I just cruis from point A to B. Unfortunately it has been sold today as don't have time to use it the way I want. But it's gone to a nice couple and I hope the have as much enjoyment as I did. You had it well done and tried to keep it as original with the work you did. Il be keeping an eye on further project s you do.
fantastic work. I like your way doing the restoration thing. keep it up
