Following the purchase in Italy, two 600 NM sea journeys and some land transport (*and a missing steeringwheel). The boat is now safely tucked up in the harbour 20 minutes from our house, where we have managed to complete a couple of jobs over the last two week-ends. This in preparation for the re-naming ceremony this coming WE and our first couple of nights onboard which are planned for the October break. The boat is actually starting to look quite tidy after we have completed the jobs listed below...
1) Interiour cleaning, ceiling to deck
2) Replacement of all curtains (no stripes)
3) Replacement of all carpets (no more mustard yellow)
4) Re-cover of the seating (no more stripes), and some of the other worn interor
5) Re-covered the two bathrooms (were very dark)
6) Total exterior clean (flybridge down... still need to polish though)
7) Replacement of bedside lamps in two guest cabins
8) Fitted new 240V lamp in saloon and pulled new course
9) Cleaned Aft deck and applied teak oil
10) Cleaned Stern properly and mounted new name (covered up)
11) Cleaned the dinghy and fitted new name
12) oil change on dinghy outboard
13) oil change and serviced the generator
14) Replaced all the SS rivets on railing on fly and deck.
15) Checked electrics after the long journey and re-charged batteries
16) Fitted smoke detectors
17) checked fire extinguishers and topped up as needed
18) checked all hull fittings and made list of jobs to be done when dry next time
19) Wahsed thought he watertakk three times (pump works OK)
20) Checked gas system
Probably loads of other thigs as well, but thougth 20 was a nice number to stop at.......
Will install new 240V heater on Saturday and plan to install holding tank + go through the remainder of the boat duting the winter.... Pictures of the cleaned up boat and interior will follow later...

) Did actually consider bringing her all the way on her own keel, but fuel cost made it a bit too expensive from that far into the Med.......May do so....
