Finally finished the rudder tonight, although by tomorrow the four coats of copper coat that I’ve just put on might be blasted back to fibreglass again as the winds a constant 40kts, gusting 62kts. It’s causing a sandstorm that’s making it difficult to do anything. Still it’s better than being in the water even though the boat (and the car) is shaking about just as much.
The mods that I made to the fridge seem to have worked as a tin I tried to get from the bottom this morning was stuck down with ice.
I took my first drive to the supermarket this morning to stock up with water, bread & chocolate as the bottled water ran out two days ago and the milkshakes running low. I’m sure the water was ok last year, but maybe it’s one of my three hose pipes that I’ve got connected together that’s causing a really bad taste this time?
The wind is supposed to end at 0300 tomorrow so hopefully back to polishing with a t shirt instead of a fleece & hat.
