First sail of 2009 [at last]

A bench like this.
Cinclus downstairs

One day someone will want a bench like this - like this. Plain pine plywood, no paint, no framing, just a monumental bench.
Until then we'll build them like this, then paint them, frame them, get the cushions made. Not much wrong with that either.
The space under the bench is an air intake for the central heating units, the warm air coming out behind the backrests.

This great ash table for the kitchen aboard Cinclus deserves a better photo.

Thanks again to Manfred at CTM who read between the lines and decided I needed a wooly all of my own.

Here on the Cinclus we're gently working our way through the final list of things to be done. Coming weekend the first guests arrive, though the Cinclus will be with us until the season really starts at the end of april.

Been rather busy the last couple of weeks. We're still finishing the Cinclus project and work has started on the Willem Johannes - the boat next door. Here is Harm Jaap getting to grips with the first pieces of wood.
