Seagull on the Dordogne in France

I just bought a local boat to go with my Silver century!

It is a local Dordogne river fishing boat. 4.5 mtrs long (nearly 15 feet) and about 1.5 mtrs wide. Flat bottomed and made from oak planks.

The combination works very well!

Most of the boats spend all winter submerged in the water. Bail them out and go fishing.

Looks like quite a good boat, not making a very big wave. Nice!

Yes, very nice boat and welcome to the forum!

I like your height adjustment set-up on your Seagull, with the 40 series engine lug.

Cheers

Can you post some more photos showing the hull shape? I think it is a winner!
