Great stuff, you must a lot of your time maintaining all that bright work though, love the timber blocks and galvanised rigging.

She is a credit to your devotion, wish I had some of that.

Great video! You have a lovely boat.
It is inspiring to see her under-sail.
My wife plays in a fiddle band - she asks if you know what music is accompanying the video?

Re music, if you look further down the page there is a link to the musician.


Oldsaltz....two coats per year, done in the autumn, then covers on. Job done. I can crack the varnishwork in one weekend if its sunny both days.
Topsides and antifoul every other year.
Deck 2 pack, maint free.

Of course there is everything else...bulwarks(need doing) capping...etc

Good stuff. I wondered how many more sails you were going to bring out and where you were going to put them all!

What paint brand and colour is the blue on the inside of your bulwarks? I need to freshen up similar stuff on the insides of my boatie.

There is also a mizzen tops'l and the 'balloon' jib, 98 and 460 sqft. Twas a bit windy for those!

The paint is madee by Brewers, and I will look up the name/code tomorrow. According to my research Scottish Zulus and Fifies had this bright blue colour on the inside of the bulwarks.

Yup, see the colour all the time on the inside of bulwarks, but have failed to find out what to call it and where to buy it!
