Although the weather has been cool at times there have been some incredibly great days to work the boat this past December and January. I have gotten a lot of small projects completed, too many thing taken apart and put back together and even more things planned on paper.This is a list of some small projects completed at home or on the boat in the last couple of months followed by some recent photos.

Next projects include fiber glassing the four instrument opens seen below. The small one on the far left will be relocated near the round wooden dick to the right of the companionway. The new compass will be just above the large round disk on the left and the engine control panel is going at the aft port side end of the sail locker. The wreath is in storage.

As if I am not nuts enough I went and got a very used and abused Walker Bay dinghy, it needs lot's more than just TLC, trust me. I am about to learn the black art of "Plastic Welding", more to follow.
