Episode 38:
The day we have been waiting for has finally arrived: it's time for the survey. Two surveyors came to uncover the full extent of the damage to our boat. From sanding down the keel area, to various hammering techniques, to using an endoscope inside the stringers - what they found was partly expected and partly shocking: cracks, unconnected layers and even water where it shouldn't be

It's been a very emotional process so far - dismantling, setbacks, discoveries and lots of learning, but now we finally have some answers and some news for us - but are they really positive?

Join us as we get through this exciting day.
