Re: Owens Brunswick 1959
Hi, this one is from 1966 on. Earlier late 1950s versions of the hull were called the Brisbane and had a near flat bottom hull, this one has a decent V profile so you have the best of the model. Later they became called Bry-Owen, and after that through the late 70s and very early 80s Sussex Ski Boat...

Re: Glastron Project
Time has flown by. The boat was basically finished by late June, with a few minor add-ons and had to wait a month or so, for the upholsterers to do the foam cap that sits on the splashwell edge.

Re: Teleflex cable replacement
I wonder whether it split further down the cable due to the pressure within the cable, given the lack of clearance; then once the plastic had split, was only a matter of time before damp / water ingress.
