Tuesday, July 04, 2006

Up the mast.



Removing the jib roller furling until the bowsprit and bobstay and whisker stays are repaired.

Boat ready for prop and splashing.



Installing the new shaft (new cutless bearing already installed and stuffing box repacked with 1/4" teflon packing).

Prop back and ready to bolt on.

Working at night

Prop painted with antifouling and on. Threw on a perry nut and doughnut zinc to protect the new shaft and reworked prop.

Ready to Launch

Launching

Launched, no leaks.


Engine still runs.

Silent Partner completed first successful self powered sea trial under new ownership. Below; after mooring up back across the river, decks a little more tidy than originally.
