        Fun job today, I decided to sort out my various jars of stainless steel bolts, washers and nuts. All the bolts with nuts in one container, and the same for washers and spare nuts.
        I did manage some light weight sanding, so it looks like I'm going to get some bits glued onto the boat tomorrow.

            Don moved a whole bunch of his stuff out of my shed today...I've been able to spread out a bit. Up until today the epoxy table and the bandsaw both sat on the router table.

                    Firstly as for story telling, its a frustrating example of stretching 15 minutes of information out to a 40 minute program with repetition ad nauseam.... 60 minutes TV ratings and advertising dollar being the objective that gets in the road of an otherwise very intriguing story.

                    If she was still afloat and plying the east coast of oz then someone would have blown their cover as plenty of marina personnel or interested mariners who had knowledge of the vessel would have smelt a rat. So eliminating the more improbable outcomes gives a more likely scenario. The sighting after the event should have had more formal follow up......... I fell asleep so might have missed some info!! ha ha........

                      Was a bit of a blow last night, 35 gusting 40 + knots north west.One centreboard fibreglass yacht turned Turkey near the beach in Camerons Bight with the mooring chain wrapped around the hull!

                          Yep. Tick that one off the list.
                          Onward and upward and all that.

                              I've never really liked the sharp angles of Hartley designs, so I'm taking a chance here, It's either going to be a wow moment or a WTF moment when it comes out of the shed.
