Wood and Steel
Yesterday we spent the day working on teak caulking and polishing Stainless
steel from door knobs to stanchions. We also tried the Various canvas
covers we brought back from Maryland. We couldn't get anything to fit.
This is going to be a process. However we have enough canvas to modify what
we need. There is a lot more stainless to polish and a lot more wood to
work on. I tried setting my first bungs as well. I did one in the deck and
3 on the port toe rail. I had a conversation with some wonderful folks in
the evening about Hinckley and hope to have a chance to meet him and ask
what he would do to upgrade/restore Grace. I have some ideas but running
them by the designer is very worth the time. I also sent out the boards
from the inside of the Dinghy to be repaired. I wish I had a table saw it
would have taken me 30 min. We'll see what he does.
