Ready for Immersion

8:45pm and I just pulled the last of the masking tape off the waterline. We are back in the drink at 7:45am tomorrow. This will be followed by frantic checking of all the seacocks I dismantled. Have faith, James.

No pics to show the finished product, it was too late, will have to wait till tomorrow.

Third floor - chandlery, varnish supplies, and rum.

Taping out the boot-top to roll up the anti-foul. Decided to go for black-on-black.


8:45pm and all done. Notice how white it looks just above the boot-top. We sanded it back and rolled on some new paint. We are going to freshen up the rest of the topsides while in the water. Old school.

I would like to give a huge thank-you to Simon Jenkin and my mum Lesley for their help with the painting. Simon gave up most of his Labour Weekend to help out. Total champ.
