Sunshine (and a rainy day)

"Hey there Mr Blue,
We're so pleased to be with you,
Look around see what you do,
Everybody smiles at you.."


First weekend in December and the Sun has come out.


Saturday, and two coats of grey primer in the engine bay (plus water to be mopped out again).
Is it possible to get RSI from a sponge ?
Put a heavier tarp over the lightweight B&Q one. I want to get the engine before Christmas, so I need to get on with it...

Sunday morning there was still some water has got in through two tarpaulins, to be mopped up off the nice grey floor ready for a coat of red primer.


While the sun was out I decided to start on the hull fittings. I am using stainless fittings so I will be using stainless screws to hold them in place. Once the large hole had been cut for the water inlet, I could mark up for the fixings. Three 4.5mm Drill holes, and three M5 taps later and the first of the Skin fittings is bolted in place with stainless Screws.

Had to finish then because I was going to see a live recording of I'm Sorry I haven't a clue in Scarborough. Brilliant.
