The gel coat is original but is getting thin to non-existent in places - I
will not paint her (that way lies madness) but I do need to stop further
UV damage to places where it is thin - winter '22/'23 I roughly colour
matched some off the shelf external paint and patched some of the worst
spots as an experiment - it has worked a treat, so I need to do some
more...
Further paint patches on the cockpit coamings done (June '26)
- New washboards - maybe a single board instead of two?
- New locker lids - starboard side lid buggered, ply is compromised - nasty bodge/repair [clicky] will see me to the end of the season (June '26)..
- I was looking at the cabin wiring the other day and while it all works, and is mostly tucked away, neat it isn't - some ducting perhaps, and I need to label it better in the switch box..
- Tabernacle - needs a new coat of Hammerite.. rubbed down (June '26) and ready for some good weather to paint it..
- New battery required.. new battery has arrived, a like for like replacement as it's exactly the same one I got last time (and it still costs the same despite it being 4.5 years later!). I'll fit it when the boat's out..
