No sailing this weekend due to tide times - simply too early and too late to make a fist of a session..
Instead a bit of make do and mend...
Fuel was recycled as it was getting on a bit and the only fuel they'd had available last weekend was standard unleaded (E10) and I try to use "Super" (E5) these days as the ethanol content is lower and I consider that to be kinder to the engine innards... so.. old fuel syphoned off, and 3.5 ltrs of new fuel poured in - the old fuel went into the car so nothing was wasted..
At the same time I took to opportunity to give the cockpit hatches a quick rub
down, and a coat of paint - the ply is shocking, and even with two coats of
epoxy spray primer small area's of cracks were showing - better to head them
off at the pass than have to make yet another set of covers when water gets
in!
