This is an important day, we’re having a surveyor checking everything is ok, and we also did a test sail 🙂
Overall there were no major issues discovered. A couple of things we will need to do in due course:
- Replace propeller shaft bearing
- Replace rudder bearing (1.8mm movement)
- Some small areas of osmosis to fix on the keel
- Tank level gauges not working
- Log sensor not working, probably needs a clean. There wasn’t a “blind” plug to put in, so the sensor is always in the water which isn’t great.
- Need a diver to clean the areas under the slings which the pressure washer couldn’t reach.
- Engine just serviced (injectors)
- We need new main and jib sheets as the existing ones are quite damaged by UV light.
- Gas certificate to be arranged and gas bottle connector to be replaced. (Andrew to organise before next Friday)
