Jul. 7, 2006 - jobs to be done

Not sailing this weekend, but will be going down to Maggie on Saturday to get a few jobs done...

The new batteries arrived today, so they will be fitted... although the battery boxes didn't turn up, i'll cope for a few days without them.....

I need to fit the liferaft mounts to the coachroof, so that'll get done..

I need to remove the globs of silcone sealant from the holes where the winches etc were removed from the coachroof, and fill them more permanently with epoxy....

And if I have time, i'll try to sand down the wood trim round the companionway and get it revarnished....

All in prep for the following weekend.... we have the Monday and Tuesday off, and my parents are along for the long weekend... we are meeting up with a few friends in the Walton Backwaters for a beach BBQ Saturday night, and then thinking of heading down towards Bradwell and Brightlingsea....
