About time too

After a lot of cleaning and wirebrushing, finally I was able to give the skirt its first coat of red oxide paint......now almost all the way round, 'she's lookin good'..... Also given the roof another layer ....theres a lot of filler work to be done yet on the roof and I have to find out how the stuff I have will work.....Dimitrol ???? I think thats what its called....the tech support said it would be good enough to fill holes in a chieftan tank !!!!! so I thought to myself that it would be just the job for WildRose ha ha...

The sides will need rubbing down again, then a coat of Grey before the winter

Had a good visit to the Crick Boat Show last weekend.........found lots of goodies and ideas.......particularly the new design Portway multifuel stove.....built to meet new boat safety standards.....I thought that it might be a good idea to fit one in this summer so that I can work through the winter .... Also been looking for a marine electrics course, tey used to run them at the Stourport Marina Clubhouse.. I thought that it might be a good idea to find out how it all should work befor I start (that will be a refreshing change for impulsive me ha ha)...and whilst I am stripping out the inside I can get a better idea of what I can or can't do..... No sign of getting the engine fitted yet, but there is have plenty I can get on with. Back soon
