In front of the camera for
a change, I'm caught in the act of clearing the remains of the mussels
removed from the hull. These have started to make their presence known by
the smell which prompted a bit of a clean up! |
Member Mike Williams takes laser measurements of the hull profile in order
to produce a new computer generated hull and 'docking' plan. Mike is also in
the process of producing a detailed 3D CAD Model of the vessel using his
professional skills as an Industrial Designer. John Pickering lends a hand
too. |

John Hake busily attacking the concrete
in the bilge area of the lower saloon, a hot, noisy and despite
appearances very dusty job. The protective clothing is a must.
