Took the boat back home from Spaulding Marine Center today. Motor performed well with the new panel and configuration. Definitely need to replace batteries: went from 90% to 30% in just 3 miles.
Varnishing panels
While my new shop is still under construction, it is still a useful place to do some varnish work. This may be the first boat project in the new shop!

Hauled out
Bleaching panels
Took apart galley and starboard locker
Put together bilge cover

Made cover for pukka
Finished companionway cover
Got started on companionway cover
Finally got some time to spend on canvas work. With El NiƱo winter approaching, I better have the entrance (and teak) protected from the elements. The idea is to use the Sailrite tutorial as baseline but modify it to have flaps around my teak boards + add top part + add a pocket at the bottom for sandbags so this cover can hang well when fastened from the inside.
