I don't know how sacrilegious it is, but the more I look at my Smit Rotterdam Build, the more I visualize personal changes I like to make. I don't like the original colors, I think my boat would look better without the forward mast and to down-scale the main mast and also without the deck protection bars. I may even move the stacks just slightly away from the rear wheel house and place the stairs in between each stack and the wheelhouse.


That's just what I see now. I can't see going farther than that, but I'm excited to see the changes. the good thing is, these items can always be added on if I'm wrong.


So, should I be lined up and shot or can you see some fun?

Hi,

Simple, think of it as a owner whose just bought it second hand and thinks that the layout is all wrong and pays for the changes to make it simpler for him and his crew to move about but still safely, plus a colour change makes it his colours not the previous owners - your representation is that, doesn't matter what the original layout or colours were, their the new owners takes.

not all similar vessels are identical - even in the same owners fleet, each is different in some way.

I recently purchased a Pilot boat, and the first thing I did was cut off the
small forecastle that was molded into the forward deck.
