We get to Linton Bay and anchor and head to Sabanitas where all the supermarkets are, about 90 minutes away. But we are in for a tragedy. The supermarket does not have Oreos and Margarida's smile evaporates. It is a sad time until she brightens up and realises we can go to the other supermarket...
There are many steps in the boat building process that some people may not know of or think about when picturing the work being done.
Most see the centerline timbers going up. Then the frames, the planks, deck, spars, etc. And Boom you have a boat!
However, there are so many more intricate part...

I'm starting to run out of cameras. This small mini-series might finish as a series of pencil sketches. Anyway, my daughter visited in Portland and said the 'R' world - then what happened. Also, a surprising amount of water in the boat - no sailor likes that.
This weekend I got the distribution panel from Blue Sea hooked up. It took just about forever. An entire day in fact. Also in this video a look at fancy ring terminals with heat shrink and adhesive.
