At rest in the boatyard

28 June 2013
The work continues
A successful haul out and Alexia is set to rest in the boat yard where she will remain until we set sail at the beginning of next season - probably around mid-September.

There's still a lot of work to do aboard - cleaning our fridge and freezer, draining water and diesel tanks as well as the regular maintenance work. The hull will need to be lightly sanded and anti-fouled.
