It's starting to look like a boat...


                                      
Some of the more important parts are completed.  The mast step is secured in place with the new cleat.  Notice the screws properly countersunk to prevent any scratching of young tails that may want to "illegally sit on it! 








It needs a sign...

DO NOT STEP OR SIT ON ME!

An ingenious idea for the new corks that cover the drain holes on the hull sides.  They are actually Houdini bottle stoppers...yellow for the Port (needs some red paint) and green for Starboard. 




Here are shots of the “old sail”. A bit worn out and dirty but still functional… Notice the “Sunflower” insignia.  I am sure that my sis will do something creative with the old sail so I will save it for her!





Yes, my mate brought me “lunch”…left over mini pizzas from a recent PiZZA's on the Grill party... but I had to get my own beer… 
But my work was interrupted by RAIN! Yes, thunderstorms and mucho rain. Have to go back to my “inside shop” and see what can I accomplish…
