I have a whole bunch of work I should be doing so I thought I'd sit down and blog instead while I drink my coffee. I promise I'll add some more photos of adventure tonite but for now I'm just desperate to remain at the table till the boss pops something to eat out of the galley.
I'm kind'a sad to hear that Coyaba went on the market and sold, not that I wish them to keep a boat that doesn't suit them but the fact that they now have no boat at all when I know that Paul's blood consists of 80% water. I've made the offer, I told him that when he can't resist the urge to upgrade and work on a vessel, they're welcome to come down and spend time here! I got a paint brush that could have his name on it! Trim to install, new fridge is going in (yes, we`re going to rip the galley apart again) new, or refurb the roller furler and on and on.
The main bedroom has it`s inner self exposed right now and I got side-tracked with a wind generator right in the middle of that project.
The new sewing machine had some technical difficulties right out of the box. I was sewing 2 layers of Sunbrella which is supposed to be a breeze for this machine, and the feed dog broke. We had watched the dvd before starting any project and it said that the foot tension should be pretty much left alone from the factory to which I have to strongly disagree as there is no other explanation for what happened. They sent me another right away at no charge but it now has me worried as the thing is poorly cast with a moment of about three quarters of an inch which is supported by cast material of about 4 and half thousands of an inch at 2 little end points.
I`d best get to work or I may get fired or worse, not fed. Later!
Dave
