Apologies

My apologies to those who asked me questions on the blog.
I've now answered the questions "Better late than never" :-)

Refurbishment



The (almost) finally result of the refurbishment of the Alacrity 19 cabin.
The below picture is at one of the two new pulpits in the stern. One to mount the stern lanterna on and one to hold the life preserver. Can also be used to arrange a form of rudder lock.

Rudder problem



When I mounted the rudder, I discovered that it was skewed. Now I placed the rudder ina water barrel with the hope that it will straighten itself out.

New interior





Working with a new interior instead of launch the boat. Hopfully I get the boat in the water before autumn. But then it will be a very much nicier little boat.

Almost ready for the see.


One of the keel have same small and queer damages. I don't know from what or when they occured. I Didn't notices them when I left the boat for winter. Now I try too fix them with fiberglass filler and then I hope the underwater paint will cover them.

Rubrail


A new rubrail list in the stern. I used may original rubrail from the stern to repair the rubrail list on the other sides of the boat. I replaced the original rubrail with two teak lists, one over the another. I found the result very pleasant.

A close up photo of a repaired pice of the rubrail. Not perfect but good enough for me.

Rudder attachment

I have filled the worn out rudder attacment with plastic padding metallic. Seems to work out fine but I have to test it under real sailing and stress before I can confirm that it's working allright.
