Hi Folks,
Lyn's winning pic at the art academy.
Lyn's been hard at work draining down the rudder,
ie drill a few holes and drain down the water, we only had one litre from the
base, not bad for 22 months in the briny.
Completed Rudder , with anti foul, the rudder has
been dropped down 100mm to cover the top part.
The Whitlock steering box prior to refurb and
modification .
The finished article, note that it has a new
quadrant arm, and cover , painted logo blue .
Another view of my pride and joy, no slap in this
old box ! the genset hoses in the background, gen set removed, more exciting
photos of that to follow once I have rebuilt it .
For those who know her, Rhythm our wandering
partners from Universal Yard , Hamble river on haul out after 30 months at sea
.
Rhythm nearing the turn table at Doug's boat yard,
Opua , just around the corner from Ashby's, in the Bay of Islands .
