In the boat yard!

We hauled out on Thursday about 1:15pm and have spent the past four days prepping the boat for summer storage. Everything has gone well up to this point but yesterday the gate valve on the head sink broke. So took that all apart and have the parts and tools standing by for replacement. Since the thru hull is above waterline it was not bedded with 5200 but rather what looked like plumbers putty. Will re bed with 5200 tomorrow and replace the valve with a stainless steel version - a bit more but not more chrome plated ball valves to break.
