Sjors,

 

I don't think Anja needs ideas... she loves you too much.  :)

 

Borge,

 

I too am waiting for this secret of the ages to be revealed.   But, patient I will be. B)

Hi boys and gals.

 

An update from the shipyard :)

 

i have installed he fresh water intake filling, mounted the pump incase of "leakage".

And a outlet for the water from the pump. And added "glass" in the windows.

Its a easy start, but i enjoy it.  :)

Thanks a lot for the nice words, its good to be back again.

 

Was away on a nice trip out on the country yesterday, in a beatutiful weather.

We got to eat meatballs of elk, and a lot of homegrown vegetables, fresh from the land.

It was a great day, with the admiral, kids, and the dogs.

God evening shipmates

 

I have installed the holding feature for the ancor, have yet to paint it a bit, and make a nice rope coil so it looks tidy on the deck.

 

Børge :)

Beautiful details.   A dentist tool..?  I guess there are few trade secrets around here.
