Spring Cleaning

Saturday 24th February 2007, Sam, Eve and Ben spent the afternoon clearing out the boat including the swabs and random tanks. At about mid-tide we motored around the sandbar and anchored about 40m off shore. Sam rowed back and forth with the gear while Ben and Eve cleaned and cleared.

Eve plans to recover the swabs and paint the interior wood work white. Ben pulled out the stove and a new galley will be planned. The boat looked to be in great condition. The fibreglass is watertight and any mildew present wiped off with a sponge and water. A small leak was found in the rear storage compartment and will be fixed when antifouling occurs in the coming weeks.
