The refit is underway at last!
The clear plastic windows in the spray hood and cockpit tent were all shot. Something had attacked the surface of the plastic and turned it virtually opaque and we'd costed in having them replaced when we bought the boat
We'd anticipated it being the winter before it got done but Chris from Blue Marine rang us on Wednesday to say he could fit it in this week.
So yesterday afternoon he stopped by on his way from Burnham to his loft in Battlesbridge to pick up the spray hood and tent
That left Pagan looking rather sleek without her clothes on...
It wasn't even lunchtime today when Chris rang to say they were ready for collection. So I hopped in the van and nipped round to pick them up
I got the spray hood back on as soon as I got back and then put the tent back up later just in time as I'd no sooner finished than a thunderstorm rolled in
We now have the novel experience of being able to see out!
We're coming out of the water on Monday to sort out the sterngear and rudder bearings.
With that done there's the prospect of going sailing in August!
