Little projects have to be done too.
The little things like getting the v~berth board cut, so the bunk will be one bunk instead of two, or you can still use it as two. The next step will be getting the foam pillow cut to fit, and get it wrapped in the same material as the rest of the cushions throughout Cerridwen's interior. The sewing machine is an awesome addition to the tools we need to continue our restoration of the inside and topside. Cerridwen came with material to keep improving the interior.
The rub strake needed a little epoxy to fill a seam that needed to be repaired. The Cap'n taped some plastic so as to not let any run down the side or drip into the water. We waited a couple of days before I sanded, and put another coat of paint on the whole rub strake.
We have been working every weekend, and I have been doing stuff all week during the day while Cap'n is at work. He also does work in the morning before he goes to work. We should be able to start taking her out every weekend, and figure out the sail inventory. She came with 8 sails, so we need to go through and try them all out
The Cap'n also sanded the grates for the cockpit floor. Took it back down to wood, we are going to keep it bare wood. This pic was taken through the forward porthole on the starboard side.
This is truly the never ending list. Every time you get a project done, mark it off the list, and BAMM, 2 or more projects appear on the list
I know I have said it before, but, , ,
Cruising means, Working on your boat in exotic places.

Dredging
Well the dredging was a fiasco. They were to be in the marina and dredging by the first of August. Then by September, there was a problem with the permit, on the Marinas side, then it was the companies problem with scheduling, then it was finally here. Well kinda here, it was in the entrance. It moved some mud out of the entrance, and it moved towards the marina pretty fast. And then it just stopped working, sitting in the entrance canal. It sat for a couple of days, then moved some mud for a couple of hours, and a biggo tug came and pushed it out of the marinas entrance, all the way out, and up river it went.
oh well, no biggie, this is only temporary
