Alacrity Sea Witch: Hole for heads now blocked up...
http://alacrity-seawitch.blogspot.com/2011/10/hole-for-heads-now-blocked-up.html
Monday, 10 October 2011. Hole for heads now blocked up. Here is outside and inside shots. This is after I had sanded the area and put some surface filler on the hull. It just needs a final sand and then it can be primed for the antifoul but that is still al while off. This is the hole from the interior. I just need to sand flat and it will be a base for the locker bottom. 27 October 2011 at 00:11. 27 October 2011 at 00:17.

Alacrity Sea Witch: November 2010

Sunday, 21 November 2010. Missing gooseneck track on mast.UPDATED. When I got my boat and had a good look at the various bits that came with it I never once thought about the gooseneck fitting on the mast. I was cleaning the mast the other day and thought now how on earth will the boom fit on the mast. I have a piece of aluminium the right thickness and cut a piece 1" wide by 15" long. I filed the edges and finished them on my belt sander making sure the track fitted nicely through the boom fitting&#...

Adventures in the Westerly Centaur 'FREE'. September 19, 2016. Event Order or Written Order? I’ve nearly caught up with writing up most of our excursions so far. I’ve published them with the date that they happened rather than when I got round to writing them. I’ll try and be more punctual from now on! September 13, 2016. September 13, 2016. We spent the weekend aboard on the mooring preparing the salon area for the same treatment as the v-berth. Removing the saggy 40 year old headlining. Autarkia : Tril...

Adventures in the Westerly Centaur 'FREE'. Scroll down to content. October 31, 2016. October 31, 2016. This Old Boat – Don Casey. Fixing up an old boat on a budget. I’ve recently bought this book. From Amazon for the princely sum of 8 including delivery. I heartily recommend it to anyone who hasn’t heard of it and is considering buying a boat. The first chapter alone will probably save you thousands of pounds and if not that, hours and hours of heartache. It is also available in a more recent reprint.

Alacrity Sea Witch: Long time no action but ....
http://alacrity-seawitch.blogspot.com/2014/09/long-time-no-action-but.html
Monday, 29 September 2014. Long time no action but . Sea Witch has been sadly neglected but not forgotten. Today I finally pulled back the tarp and got to fitting the new windows. I had four identical frames cut from 3mm stainless left over from another boat project. The idea is to put one frame inside and one out and to bolt through the fibreglass and sandwich a tinted perspex window inbetween. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Hi, I hope you enjoy my Blog. This is my first ever Blog and it is all abo...

http://alacrity-seawitch.blogspot.com/2014/10/well-thought-i-would-fill-in-another.html
Saturday, 25 October 2014. Well thought I would fill in another hole in the deck, ie. the hole just forward of the main hatch. It had a horrid plastic mushroom vent that was brittle and didn't take much effort to remove. I have this lovely brass mushroom vent. Result looks pretty good I think. Now to fit it to the boat. Pic of vent closed and open with teak base. I have a smaller mushroom vent that I might fit on the stern to vent the rear lockers. 26 October 2014 at 04:38. 26 October 2014 at 05:35.

Wednesday, 1 October 2014. Well, progress albeit slow.here are some more pics with the bolts in temporarily and the perspex. Now to decide if I put the dome nuts inside as first thought or outside. Any thoughts anyone? I think the hex head bolts on the outside would look cleaner. 1 October 2014 at 04:52. Heads on the outside too. have you considered butyl tape rather than sika? 1 October 2014 at 14:46. 2 October 2014 at 00:14. 2 October 2014 at 08:09. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
