Some pics and a winter update

 Happy New Year (a little late) to everyone. We sure need a break from the old one,  that's for sure. We have been doing our best to follow guidelines and health protocols and thankfully so far all has been well around here. I hope wherever you are that things are looking good too.

We are now back to working on the vessel for our client and so besides the scattered weekend dear Lena Blanche is sitting in a cold shop waiting for us to arrive  back again in the spring. Warren has had pneumonia for the last 3 weeks so I have been sneaking down to do a little work on our 'girl' and so I have been caulking the deck. It's quite a slow job but little by little I'm seeing progress.

Warren told me that I haven't put up any recent pics of the trailer and of the interior of the boat so here goes:

This is the start of the trailer for the boat. There are 3 axles on either side. The boat will be riding on 12 sets of dual wheels and 12 airbags and brakes on all wheels.
Inside the wheelhouse.
Doing some caulking at the bow.
For Christmas we got some new deck hands. It might take them a little while to get their sea legs though.

They are keeping our house filled with entertainment. And we have learned (again) to look down when we take a step

  1. Really enjoying your build along with the pictures and commentary. I have been following for some time and just wondering if there is an update coming. I trust everyone is well back there.
