#VancouverIsland #sailors: I made arrangements to haul my boat for bottom paint. Last Monday they cancelled due the snow, said to come back next week (yes, I and boat were there as scheduled.)

This week I showed up and they had forgotten they had rescheduled my lift. They have rescheduled it again, in 10 days.

I am making plans for if they tell me next time they are not going to lift the boat.

What #boatyard on Vancouver Island would you suggest for a 10 m 1964 #sailboat?

We seem to be the only one on the #Broad today. Here's what we see panning around the #boat.

The #boatyard gets a mention in our report of our first overnight #cruise aboard Singing the Blues.

It's still there. Sans angle grinders, a few other tools, and bedding brought home to launder on an overloaded bicycle..

Here's my Boatyard print from last year.

It's a four colour screenprint which uses transparent black to create extra tones.

I wanted to draw more people and this is one of the first prints where I've deliberately put people in.

#BoatsThatToot
Managed to pop to the #boat this morning at the #boatyard on the #NorfolkBroads and removed all the old ID.
As I'm a new owner the #BroadsAuthority issued the new nuymber stickers at no charge to replace the old ones that had been obliterated while on the #River #GreatOuse. The lettering for the new name arrived at the beginning of June. Both will be fixed in place on our #HamptonSafari once the weather dries and I have given the hull a good clean.

Ich habe es getan Ich bin nun Eigner einer Jaka 18, über 50 Jahre alt und es wurde einiges daran gebastelt. Werde also in Zukunft hier ab und zu von meinem Refit-Projekt berichten. #boat #boatbuilding #boatyard #boatprojects #boatrefit

They say renaming a boat is bad luck. We did it anyway and I #blogged about it. We're especially stoked because the new logo/name was put on the boat yesterday. We splash next week! #sailing #sailingBlogs #boatyard

How it started vs how it's going. Spent a couple of hours yesterday and most of today working on descaling our keel coolers. The good news: you can tell they're #keelCoolers now. The bad news: the zincs still don't fit in 3/4 of the holes. More descaling tomorrow!

Inspected all the thru hulls on SV Loka today, and one of them had quite a bit of gunk in it from the outside. This is the aft head discharge (holding tank by-passed) thru hull. Any ideas on what it might be? Should we be worried about something deteriorating upstream? #boatyard #sailing #boatProjects #theBoatyard
