We did a good choice by deciding to leave the apartment and stay on the boat all summer. Spending time here allows us to see what really is in need of maintenance and renovation. As we both work 10-14 hours per day with our regular commitments, there isn't really too much time working on the boat but at least we have one new thing solved every week. At the moment I'm busy repairing the cockpit grate and refitting the teak on deck. A hell of a lot of work but I guess someone's just has to get it done. Very relieving to see the condition of the boat slowly improving./A
