Progress of an escargot

The Boatlord was on site and active today. I finally got into the shop (the mechanic took the day off) and set myself up to cut new ceiling panels for the v-berth. This is fun.
I'm stalled for want of sealant, panhead screws and insulation, but since Marc also runs a rental business on the side, he seems to be able to get his hands on materials. Not much more I can do since everything is closed for Remembrance Day.

While Marc was on board checking out the deck leak, I corraled him into starting up the engines. Apparently the mechanic didn't have time to tune them up, and Marc finally determined that 6 months of inactivity has left both carburetors clogged. On the bright side, he found a barbecue for me and tonight is my "neighbours" last party for the season. The sheltered picnic area is all mine till spring!

No boating till the carbs are cleaned out, but at least I can plan a barbecue for my group after the first team project review Wednesday.
