Hypothetical situation

[Moose]

Now, for a moment lets suppose that your boat was sitting out of the water at a boatyard 50 miles away. Lets also suppose that you had spent the last 7 days "working" on it and it was due to be launched tomorrow morning, lets presume its early, say 8am for example. Now, what would make this hypothetical situation very interesting would be if the boat had:
a) No Antifouling on it
b) No Anodes
c) No Rope Cutters
d) No Propellors

And to complete this purely hypothetical situation, it is pouring with rain, it is dark and it is cold.

What would you do?

What's the problem, they have 10 hours 40 minutes, to do 4 quick jobs.
We had a friend who always finished anti fouling walking down the yard with his boat in the slings,

I can tell you all that this is a real "live" situation with me at the centre, cos' I have been doing all the work/forums/images/icons/mad.gif I just never imagined that it would take this long! I should never have tried to take 8 years worth of Antifouling off the hull!
Oh well/forums/images/icons/crazy.gif

Now what was the last thing you said to me on Friday night?

Something about bringing down the deckchairs so that you could spend Sunday admiring your work wasn't it? Of course I blame the management. /forums/images/icons/wink.gif

Still you have had a good time and at least everyone can continue to admire those beautifully polished props.

Are there any Albanians about?

"Are there any Albanians about?"
Perhaps they could hold an umbrella over me while I paint the sides.
Do you think it was Colin's diesel dance that went wrong and brought all this rain with it?

Not sure we are being fair in this instance. It would appear that the noble beast is himself at fault due to doing all the work personally and not having a clue as to how long it would take.
This is one of the many reasons why I do as little maintenance as possible.
Still, 9/10 for trying I suppose./forums/images/icons/smile.gif
