For Sale as a partially restored project
S.L.
Hero
click image to enlarge

|
S.L.Hero previously Avondale
was built in approximately 1895 probably by Andrews of
Maidenhead as an electric launch. (see Edward
Hawthorne’s book Electric boats on the Thames) She
is 35 ft long beam 5ft 6 inches and a draft of 2ft.
Over the last 18 months a great deal of professional
time has been spent on her replacing her keel, ribs and
most of the underwater planking, the workmanship is of
the highest quality. My circumstances have changed,
which results me in looking for someone who would like
to take on the project. The majority of the work is
done and she would make a fantastic and historic
electric launch. Contact: Nigel Thomson 07710 474158
