The cold weather continues to hamper getting ready to go back in the water. We've got our crane in date (15th April), but whether Robinetta will be ready is a whole other story! Our first trip is supposed to be up the Blackwater to overnight in Haybridge basin on the 20th, which will let us get to two fitting out celebrations, lunch with WOA, and supper with the OGA. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Went and fetched two things to help us get ready today, the main sail from its servicing at James Lawrence, and some Siberian Larch planks we bought off e-bay. Julian's going to use them to repair the bulwarks in the cockpit this weekend, so long as it isn't snowing too hard! So long as its dry and over 5C we WILL get the anti foul on! (hopefully two coats over a proper tie coat, plus a fresh layer of Toplac, but that feels like wanting the moon right now!)
