Work Party October 1,2006

This was a very well attended and profitable work party, with a lot of wooden bungs being glued into holes over old fasteners, as well as a plank beings steamed and put into place on the starboard side of the hull. The day started off rainy, but cleared up, allowing the work to proceed at a good rate. A good hearty lunch was served, thanks to the Fairheads, the Wootons and John Staunton. If we can keep this level of enthusiasm going, the ship should be in good shape for launching in the spring.
