Ten days to go and preparations are now nearing completion. Juniper was out, cleaned, antifouled and re-launched over the hottest days of the year. Good for paint drying but not good for us in our white coveralls!!!
Only slight hiccup was when the Blakes Ocean Performer Dove White anti-foul mixed pinkish! Blakes technical manager assures us that this is normal and it goes white after "prolonged submersion in water" - we will see. Photo shows what I mean!!
