Starboard done. Port to do.
Starboard done. Port to do.
The fun of Oxalic acid.
Before elbow grease and chemicals.
After elbow grease and chemicals.
Everyone is in the same boat.
Putting on a brave face.
Glamorous boat showers.
No scurvy here.
Hmm. How to get behind here?
Long forgotten bolts are checked.
Filling and fairing,
Preparation and priming.
Sanding and spraying.
Shinier than new.
Structure is strong.
Its all in the detail.
Veneer covers all.
Custom made trim.
Iain gets happy at the sight of seacocks.
Fiona is feeling sick.
Ready for Cetol.
The Cetol production line.
Drying in the dry.
Boatyard life.
Christmas arrives.
That box has come all the way from England,
So many spares. So many new jobs.
Out with the old. In with the new.
There is always cleaning.
Hot from eBay.
The battery charger bites back.
Poor diddums.
Hot. Hot. Hot.
That's quite scary.
Round through hulls turn square.
Iain tries to get into a tiny locker.
New tech and very old tech.
Ready for the next job.
