Sea Weasel Repair Party After Party

The WEASEL is about to be re-commissioned and sent back into service!
Well the big weekend is upon us. The WEASEL will be recommissioned soon. This Thursday is confirmed as the day the boat is coming out of the water. Dave and I will be helping the towing company get the boat over to Granville Island Boat Yard. Where Stem to Stern will begin the work on the prop-shaft replacement and all the related work.
Our days will be the Saturday and Sunday when we will have access to the boat to do the hull work. The main goals will be to sand and re-antifoul the hull below the water line, clean and polish the hull above the waterline, and add new zincs. Most of the work will be done Saturday with Sunday being reserved for a second coat of paint and final polishing.
The generous support I have received with this project by crew and friends has been overwhelming. To show my appreciation I am inviting everyone over to our apartment for a home cooked meal and drinks. This can be a gross job and I really appreciate the help.
Remember if your drinkin' to make sure you have a way home.
