Just here

Brother David's take on our short lived attempt to become North Nederland Champions in the 16m2.

Boom

Glueing up a new boom for the 16m2 to replace the one I broke with David during the North Netherlands Champs.
The PRO measured the wind at 6 gusting 8 - too much for the forty year old boom.

Slow coffee

Fifteen years of living aboard Op Hoop van Zegen and still not finished building?
Time for a cup of hand wound coffee.

IBA wired up

Spent yesterday and today getting the four pumps and their switches in place and wired up.
All working and switching now so a couple more details and the IBA (individuele behandelunit afvalwater - individual waste water cleaning unit) will be up and running.

A new bathroom

The first wall of our new bathroom is in. Only all the rest to do now.
We're building a new bathroom to connect to our new mobile sewage plant that will enable us to tie up all over the place and still comply with the European sewage laws.
Next up this summer are solar panels and a wind generator to keep everything running when we're away from our home mooring.

That's quick

The computer desk we installed on Wednesday has been painted and varnished, wired for electricity and the computer and printer installed.
Always nice when clients work as hard as we do to make our work look good.

#DYR Day 3

So many RIBs here and the 4 meter 50 boat we went out in this morning is one of the small ones.
We watched one race and then returned to shore.
Probably Em's worst race to date and nowhere close to her 26th. place yesterday afternoon.
She wanted to make the Gold fleet but will have to have done better in races 2 and 3 to get there.
