I love wooden spars! It is always exciting when someone wants us to build a new mast for them.

Lapwing is a gaff cutter, built on Leigh Bawley lines. She is shoal draft with a centre plate and is a good sound boat but her old mast had serious problems!

Update 19th September 2017

We have fitted a new port rubbing strake, carried out some plank repairs to the port quarter and given Lapwing a complete repaint and partial recaulking of the topsides this summer.
