Winter Rain Stops Play

As a result of this winter's weather that seems to average one day heavy rain followed by a day of showers or perhaps even sunshine, none of the planned Shamrock or Nancy Belle's maintenance has been possible. To enable some major work to be completed Nancy Belle has now been dragged, well winched into the boat shed to dry out. With a bit of luck we should be able to start scraping and painting her next week in the dry but not necessarily warm.

The boat shed is starting to look congested!

Somebody was not very happy with Shamrock's multi-coloured block and added a bit of wood stain to a drop of varnish and ended up with a block of more uniform colouring and to his liking.

Now spot the new bit.
