So saturday has come and almost gone. I still have a bit to do on chain locker. I am still not sure if it should be called a chain locker or an anchor locker. Seems most people know what I am talking about. Truthfully I think it should be called an anchor rhode locker.
I don't seem to have the skill with a computer to figure out how to turn pictures. Maybe by tomorrow night I will be able to put chain and anchor back where they belong and it will all work out as planned. Because if it does not I don't know how to fix it. I have done the best I can on this.
Of course all I have to do is look next door and see Steve and Anastasia putting struts and driveshafts in with help from Phil (the resident mechanic). So far the chain locker is a pretty insignificant chore compared to that. I have learned a lot about the job they are doing and I think if I "had" to do it myself, I could. I would just want to know why. Why would I" have" to do one? Well, I would certainly help a friend with one but I have seen the light. You don't want to do one unless you actually do have to do it.

I don't remember if I showed engine mounts. Engine is certainly going to be pretty. Pretty hard to forget once you have seen it :-).
I have been forgetting to get pictures. It has been a bit of a headache but one of my worst probems is almost straightened out. Engine parts are starting to come in now so soon it is going to be serious busy here. Back has really been acting up lately. I hope it eases off once I get some rest time after Mary Lee is launched.

It has been a tough day. I will have pictures of new stuff next time.

  1. We had to do it because the bottom was so hacked up. Our Keal was not existent. So it order to get a good coat of glass everywhere we had to remove the running gear. Not a fun job. Phil lost half his finger on the same type job last year.
