A post lockdown condition check

I got all the covers on Robinetta the day before the latest lock down started, and I left a small low wattage oil filled radiator on her, set to its lowest settings. This is the first time I have tried such a thing, and I was not sure how useful it would be.

I went aboard for the first time yesterday, when the air temperature was only 2C and there had been a day and a half of fog. She certainly did not feel in any way warm, but there was minimal condensation in the cabin. In other good news she has finished obviously taking up.

Now we just need to do something about the engine...
