Dear All

We are still progressing.  Richard Mellersh, the cabinet maker has completed the teak cockpit seating; Janice is now oiling it.  Andy and Richard are working on the aft teak cover over the lazarettes and liferaft stowage.  Varnishing continues.  Andy has done the aft head floor in an acrylic solid surface, same as the galley work surfaces.  The next job is to re-jig the aft workshop layout and then paint both this and the aft head.  The doghouse has been glazed and we've started final fitting some hatches and deck gear.  The mast has arrived from Formula Marine, Holland and is waiting in Ipswich for us...  Janice :-)
