Sirenia

• May. 22, 2007 - Nearly ready to head for Ostend.

VHF Whip should be in the post, hopefully it will arrive tomorrow.

My son had agreed to go up the mast to fix it.

 

Pump tube for the inflatable dinghy found in the shed.

Can't find the radar reflector etc.

This will have to a visit to the Swindelery on the way to the boat on Thursday.

Cork screw yet to pack.

 

Other things to sort.

Fill the 5 gallon diesel can for spare fuel.

Sirenia's tank only holds 5 gallons say 25 ltrs.

The engine data states that consumption is about 2.5 ltrs/hr

That is only 10 hours at best.

We filled the tank to the brim of the deck filler on Sunday.

We have another 5 gallon can on board.

If the forecast is correct we will be motorsailing, so expect to have to top up the tank on the way over.

 

I got some s/s split pins from eBay the other week to finish locking the rigging screws etc.

I managed to leave them at home last week end.

They are now packed to go.
