Progress Update: October 28th

 'Loading the skiff'

DJ has been working on a project in North Carolina all summer and hopefully will be wrapping it up and back to the ship soon. He has been back a few times and this trip we made excellent progress with some very heavy lifting. 
We removed the 400 lb granite top table that was on the back deck and this made room for the tools that have been stored in the utility trailer.

We are really liking that knuckle boom crane! I mean, really really liking. Our backs are liking it as well.

Our back deck now looks like a workshop like the rest of the boat!














The granite table which was sold to a new home.





Penny was enjoying the empty space with the table gone but that didn't last long!










Didn't take long to put things to work. 
Ripping guides for a new pocket door.

Thanks to Gary Blanton for the donation of the dado set and some extra blades. Didn't take long to put them to work!




The start of the pocket door leading into the shop. Space is very narrow through here so a normal hinged door would impinge on the little space there is.
