Fine weather...

The day started off with a heavy haar (sea fog) covering the island, this slowly cleared during the morning and left us with a fine sunny day. At the workshop Waterwitch had her engine & gear box serviced, all fluids were changed. Next time we will clean up the inside and prepare her for storage under cover at another location as we need to free up some more working space.

We recently ordered a cut larch tree of boat skin quality which was transported up to Orkney from Scotland. This log arrived at the workshop today. This wood will enable us to start work on some of the boats that are waiting for planks to be replaced.
