Today we moved the anchor winch! The winch was still sitting on the part of the deck that needs replacing, so we had to unbolt it and move it to the side to pull up the last bit of rotten wood and keep going with the prep for the new deck, this is the never ending storm, my god :) @yvonnemarianna.travels

The new Samson Post is looking goooood :) I love the days when you can see the progress and today is one of those days. Sanding and painting just makes the biggest difference, oh I can't wait to see the new post on stormy. I might need some advice of you guys: everyone tells me to paint the new samson post (the old one was painted grey) but I really love the timber look. Keep it natural or paint it? What do you think?

Another new skilled I leanred since I bouth Stormy: caulking Here is a little definition: Caulk, to (Verb) - To make watertight by driving or caulking (usually loose cotton fibres) into a seam, followed by a coarser fibre material such as oakum then stopping with pitch or putty. Caulking (Calking) - Boat cotton, oakum or other fibres driven into planking seams to make them watertight. The oldest form of caulk consisted of fibrous materials driven into the wedge-shaped seams between boards on wooden boats or ships. So this is what I'm doing to the deck :) IG: @yvonnemarianna.travels Patreon: SailingStormy
