Dry dock

Lille Ø was lifted to the hard for the weekend in preparation for this summer’s cruise. A hectic period followed, with a full winter’s workload compressed into just a few days.

The TODO list:

• Wash boat
• Wax boat
• New antifouling
• Wash mast
• Lubricate mast rollers
• Rigging check
• Replace broken mast sheave
• Install new jib halyard
• Re-route spi halyard
• Propeller maintenance
• Install solar arch
• Replace toilet sink seacock
• Check all seacocks
• Change all positional lights to warm white leds
• Check rudder attachments for wear and tear
• Profurl maintenance

There are still some smaller things to do that can be done in the water. And of course provisioning.

• Distance during weekend: 120 000 steps
• Elevation: 57 floors
• Feeling: exhausted
