Yesterday was an early start followed by a detour through Norwich and lots of painting!

I’ve finally done it!

• Antifouling primer done
• Fire extinguishers fitted
• Carbonmonoxide alarm fitted
• Antifouling done
• Batteries in
• Tiller attached
• Fenders on the boat
• Mooring ropes ready
• Junk and work rubbish disposed of

Rosie Free is ready for the dip!

I didn’t have quite enough primer to do the full boat at full strength so diluted a little (5%) with some thinners and it still covered nicely. The half way stage with all grey colour actually looked quite nice. I might consider grey finishing colour next time.
