We had about a week of no rain. Not a drop. Quite unusual for monsoon but we were lucky with the window because it meant the paint team could come in and do the topsides. So last week half the workers took a few days off as the painters wrapped Esper in clingfilm (helps attract the dust, especially when it's been painted) and we got three coats of topcoat and three coats for the waterline too.

Here's some pics, including a couple of portraits of the paint team (and one who isn't a member of the paint team), followed by a link to the video clip. Worth it, cos we're pretty pleased with the results:
