Productive day

The morning started very busy with cleaning out the Morso stove and cleaning the chimney. From then we moved on to the engine and changed the oil and filter on the Beta 5o and checked the belt tensions and topped up the stern greaser. We then changed the centre rope and made up some new clip on side fenders and Al made some scones....

Then we went out in the afternoon to try and find those windlasses we saw on our walk....and hey presto we have two spares now. Busy Busy Busy!

Steve, a windlass is the handle you use to crank open gates on the locks to let the water in or out.
