that this might be the first year that the boat has a dry bilge, she was popped back in the river today.

I have

replaced the galley with a new integral two burner gas ring and in sink.
made a gas tight locker thats drained overboard.
painted the topsides
painted the cabinsides
reinstated the race numbers and union jacks
varnished the cockpit trim for the first time (in 4 years its been bare)
replaced one prop shaft
one new cutlass bearing
changed from a taper to a split hub
replaced the anode
fixed a leaking screw



Still a few jobs to do but she's back in and has a Swordsman for company!

People like you sicken me, Ben! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

My employers and my creditors all seem determined not to let me have any time and/or money to devote to Crystal at the moment. Still, I should be up there in a couple of weeks and can start stripping whats left of her varnish.

Well done on completing an impressive task list, sir!
