Restoration work is important service provided by JJ having restored his own Norfolk Punt, No 51.  This old boat  was given a new lease of life, and shows that when a classic boat is beautifully restored it is a wonderful thing. This boat has won the Punt Championships, 9 times and the Hard Chine trophy 11 times.
