Swift in hospital


Sadly there has been no sailing today. J was heading down to the lake when he spotted a small scuff in swift's paintwork which on closer examination revealed damage to the hull. This would have occurred in transit on the trailer yesterday so, after a short gloomy walk to the lake, Swift was loaded back onto the trailer and taken back to the workshop. The damaged section needs to be cut out and new ply fitted. A very disappointing end to the weekend particularly for J after working so hard to produce such a masterpiece of craftsmanship.
