Angie,
Comet, yeah that will do the trick. That or I've been told Simple Green will work.
I actually got down to the wood work in the cockpit, and also started pulling the rub rail trim that is rotten. The stainless steel bolts that fastened the trim are as shiney as the day they came from the factory.
My Mom moved back to Texas, so that pretty much absorbed last week helping her pack up and clean. My son just flew down from the North Slope to rent a house, so I'll be helping with that too. He also wants me to work on his Tahoe, seems to be running a bit rough.
But some where in there, I hope to get back out and pull the tarp off the Twin-keeler. I was out on the bow Monday and felt her start to see-saw on me, a good sign that I have most of the ice out of the stern. Time to strap her back down.
Amazing how many guys have showed up, wanting to know when we're going halibut fishing :lol: I've been keeping an extra scrub brush around. A couple extra sanding blocks would be a real smart move, too.
I've been looking at wood trim to replace the teak trim, very limited choices up here. At first I thought I would pull it all off, but now, I may just scarph in the bad sections. Unless, I come up with a good source.
I still haven't found a hull number, the one owner Bill, that I am in communication with in England, said, he never found one either. He however is the second owner of his boat and even has the owner's manual.
I'm looking forward to getting the mast up, but I may have to wait until all the ice has melted off the driveway to get enough traction to move her back a bit. I noticed that I am a bit close to the powerline
hock:
I take it that you have been busy yourself, I noticed you hadn't made a post in a couple of days, but perhaps you haven't had anything to say.
Your friend,
Mike the undaunted
