Well who'd a thunk'd it..? A new season approaches and time to kick my moribund sailing life into motion again..
Lift in date is the 15th April - Easter Bank Holiday Friday - the count down clock (left) is ticking again..
Jobs:
-
The outboard is in for a service - didn't get a lot of use last year, but as
previously mentioned I'm a mechanical numpty, and better the experts check
it over than it fails when I need it most..
-
The life jackets are on their 24 hour inflation test - gas bottles weighed
and well within limits (+/- 1 gm.)
To do list (in priority order - full list above)
- Antifoul (if I can do job #8 - the smooth off of the old antifoul, as well, so much the better)
- Job #11 - Tender thwarts need doing - I may have a lead on a replacement tender which would render the job unnecessary...
- Job #3 - the depth gauge - I don't want to cut holes in the cockpit so currently thinking a hinge out instrument panel on the side of the companionway entrance will do the trick... VHF mic and the GPS mount can go in it as well
- Job #12 - fit the new clock
- Coat of paint on the locker lids and wash boards
- Update and replace the cabin stores
- Any of the rest I get to!
