Work in Progress

If owning a boat is standing in the shower ripping up tenners, we're getting pretty clean at the moment. As always there's loads of work to be done on a boat during the winter lay up period and what initially doesn't look like a lot of work or expense ends up being so. How is it that every marine piece of plastic seems to be priced the wrong  side of £100?

Well at least we've got a shiny new propeller, and I'm in the process of fitting new double height deck organisers. Previously someone had fitted two sheave Barton organisers, so we've been sailing with two lines going through each sheave which has not sat well with either the organisers or the rope. Also a bit of gelcoat repairing going on.

Stephen spent saturday polishing the hull, so she looks nice and shiny now.

The spring series commences on sunday 4th April, so we shall be back in the water and raring to go.
