Having got our lovely old Stuart Turner P5M two-stroke engine to run, our 1958 Windermere traditional clinker built lake launch is nearly ready for the river, or is it?

It is very, very leaky indeed and the only way to re-hydrate the wood properly is to sink the boat for a while so it can 'take up' plenty of water. The question is; will it float in the end or is Hafren destined to end up at the bottom of the river like its famous unfortunate Princess namesake?
