After falling off a ladder several days ago, Gama came back yesterday to continue our project. His dislocated shoulder still hurt, so we gave him a 400 mg Ibuprofen. It apparently helped him.

He finished the installation of the tubing on the port side. While polishing, he accidently dropped his polishing compound into the sea and so that brought his work for the day to a halt.

He will be back tomorrow to complete the polishing and to take the precise measurements for the starboard side. He said it will be much faster then on the left side. Once the right side is done sometimes next week, he will build the two gates and when I get my stainless steel hinges from Howard, within a couple of weeks, the gates will be welded in place and the fabrication of the locking system fabricated.

What has been done so far, looks good. He returns on Monday to start the starboard side in earnest.
