Things are going well with getting Brown Eyes ‘ship-shape’, even though the to-do list seems to be getting longer rather than shorter.

| A winch half stripped. |
Lots of cleaning is going on below, whilst up on deck I decided to start aft and work my way forward. Earlier last week I stripped the mizzen of it’s sail, stack-pack and running rigging and today, I am pleased to report, put it all back in place. This has served two purposes, first of all it all runs a little more smoothly than before and also, I now know how it all goes together.

| All the bits |
Over the weekend I took my first winch to pieces and serviced it and more importantly successfully put it back together. One down, 7 to go!
I have also started to reseal some of the deck fitting, as there are a few signs of water ingress below deck....but nothing serious.
It’s engine and mainsail next.
