Still Scraping!

I know it's a while since I've posted anything on here but it doesn't mean that nothing has been happening.

Every time that the weather has permitted it Mike has been out scraping away at all the layers of paint on her hull. It's a slow job but he's getting there!

We noticed a problem when we first saw Crocus ...

It would appear that she had been left with her roof up and it had been slowly pushing the hull outwards so that the doors didn't meet to shut.

Since we've had her in Cornwall we've kept the roof down and the doors seemed to be better. Mike had an idea for bringing them in the last little bit and he fitted a bottlescrew and wire across inside the cabin ...

He's been very slowly tightening it over the weeks. What a difference ...
