The boat has been out of the water since we got here, getting the bottom repainted so it's all clean and smooth for sailing. Not that it should make a real difference in our speed, ours is a very slow boat!
Steve has also spent the past two and a half days polishing the outer hull. He was well into his first day when the yard guy said to him, "You're doing it wrong and using the wrong stuff." But he then took pity on Steve, showed him the professional secrets of how to polish and the magic ingredient to use (ssshhh, don't tell anyone!). The hull is now so shiny the water reflects off it!
Here is Steve - post polish.
Tomorrow we start on the inside. From what I hear, it is slightly disordered since the interior repaint...
