In Autumn 2021 we took the boat to The OXON Boat Painting Company at Stretton Stop. For £14000 they stripped the paint off and added around 12 coats of paint. It was also renamed Hobson’s Choice (from Ay Up Me Duck). In addition a new stove flue and roof collar plus all new fenders, mushrooms and everything else on the deck.
