Leisurely trip down to the yard Monday to put the rowlocks to rights after the breakage on Sunday... here's the damage.. sod's law of course that it was a couple of inches to the right of the last repair.. if I'd just extended the last repair all would have been good..
Dismantled everything, cut out a good section of the inner and cut a new bit to fit (from eldest's old pine bed which is a gift that just keeps giving and giving and giving... ).. cut a smaller bit of the outer thwart to replace the rotted bit and then started reassembling using all the original bolt holes and bolts...
Inner.. |
While I was at it I also cut a small rebate on the top edge as no matter what I did orginally when fitting it stood proud once I'd tightened everything down, and last year I noticed the oar was rubbing it..
Outer.. |
Apologies for the gratuitous leg shot... |
