Living Contentedly

After fettling the cabin back onto shape and firing up the woodheater to ward off the blowy chill, I returned to work on Ilona. I had left the deck boards sanded, but with only one coat of varnish. So today's efforts were to add two more coats of varnish to the deck. I branched out to sand & varnish other exposed timber on deck; centreboard case, outboard well surrounds and fore and aft deck scuppers.  Under lights tonight she's definitely blinging it out!  

Having a coffee fromonkwy on the Wire, Wellington. 100k down in wet & stormy.conditions, its been good to get out here during a weather break & stretch our legs.  It stayed stormy all around, all the way. Frequent heavy showers, miles apart. But the scenery was beautiful.
