Once completed, the charity will relaunch the boat to provide motor cruising courses for veterans, or sell the boat to use the funds for other sailing projects.

Shaun added: “We have a workshop and brew area at the ready where people can sit and discuss the scheme and learn about the tools required to complete the task. The project aims be fun, while offering the chance for volunteers meet new people, make friends, learn useful skills and help bring a historic wooden motor boat back to life.”
