Love it. Wonderful RN Grey is perfect for Pompey.
May I suggest large black letters with white edges for pennant numbers and the name in RN red on the stern or in brass on oak to port and starboard on the wheelhouse.

Final piece of the puzzle done!

Took a while to get this but right but I think it’s spot on.

Simple and elegant. White was the right choice. The black shadow sets it off perfectly.

One year on. Still looks like new. 20 minutes to wash instead of the usual 6-8 hours polishing so I’m very happy.

looks great, and as I now am about to embark on the compounding, polishing and waxing of the hull this weekend, and I thought I couldn't feel any worse..............

Finished the antifoul yesterday in between the rain showers. Anodes fitted. Hopefully today I’ll get the screen wash fitted after giving the topsides a quick polish and then get her launched back in this afternoon. Not bad since she was only lifted on Tuesday afternoon.
