Today we hauled Sylph out to once more paint her bottom.
Yesterday an interesting vessel pulled into the marina, a lovely wooden vessel, the Raukawa designed by L.H. Coolidge (the brother of one time US President Calvin Coolidge, so the current owner Keith tells me) and built in New Zealand in 1938.  The Raukawa needs an urgent slipping after bouncing on a bar somewhere on the coast of Kangaroo Island.  Hopefully no serious damage has resulted.
