WHEN WE GOT TO GRENADA, WE HAD TO HAVE THE BOAT LIFTED OUT OF THE WATER TO GET THE BOTTOM CLEANED AND RE ANTI FOULED PAINT. IT WASNT NICE BEING ON THE BOAT ON DRY LAND BUT IT WAS NECESSARY. WE HAD THE WATERLINE RAISED ALSO.

TAKING IT OUT OF THE WATER

SOME OF THE SLUDGE ON HER

WASHING HER CLEAN FIRST

TAPING UP A STRAIGHTLINE

SHE WAS THEN SANDED AND AFTERWARDS PRIMED WITH A GREY PRIMER

THEN 2 COATS OF RED ANTI FOULING

BACK COMES THE LIFT AND LIFTS HER UP SO THE BLOCKS CAN BE TAKEN AWAY AND THE HULL PAINTED WHERE THEY HAD BEEN

SEE JOHN PAINTING UNDERNEATH??

BACK IN THE WATER SHE GOES

AND OFF WE GO TO ANOTHER BAY!

FINALLY MOORED IN ST GEORGES BAY !
