Preparing the boat for Launching day
Although I decided not to launch the boat, I wanted to present her in that kind she once will appear. So I fitted pintles and gudgeons for the rudderblade.....
.... test included,
fitted the portholes with Joe`s help
finished the teakframes around the cabin roof ,
put the cabin roof on (just with some screws, to get it off again later)
In the end I was really a bit sad, that we couldn`t finish far enough to launch our baby, but the decision was the right one. She´s a big project and I always knew that she can´t be finished completely in such a short time.
We will do that in Austria step by step.
