Waterfront
Short evening visit to boatyard. Weather-oracle (Jim) judged that the conditions are fine to varnish so I went to Meritaten to put another coat of Epifanes onto winch shelves. Quick job it was so I sprinkled some water on the bottom - to keep planking humid - and went to waterfront to look onto boats in the slip.
Lennart’s “Andrina” was being launched since couple of days. I met Eric who says that she is almost tight now but they don’t dare to leave her overnight without anyone watching - she still takes too much water. Probably due to dry winds these recent weeks our boats have opened their seams.
“Staika II” is already launched and waits for her rig.
Enormous Laurinkryssare she is!
I noticed that they added teak benches in her mahogany cockpit. Quite a good idea - to keep our bottoms dry after rain. Maybe it’s something to implement on my boat when I renovate her cockpit next year.
