The second half of the head systems upgrade was replacing 3 thru hulls, valves and elbows, plus a new toilet.
Because I was so busy working on other areas of the boat during my time on the hard, I hired someone to do this second par of the upgrade.

With nothing to do and no place to be we found ourselves drifting through the amazingly beautiful El Nido. We found an incredible island where our days blended into weeks. We explored the sights and did a bit of diving before heading south for Puerto Princessa. We got caught in a squall, our ancho...

In this episode I get the final two coats of anti-fouling paint on.
Things get pretty messy when you are on the hard when you have to spend all your time on the projects that need to be done so I start doing some general clean up.
I also measured the draft of the boat because of conflicting number...
In this episode you find out that part of my daily routine is chatting with my new neighbour James who has been sailing the world since 2007! You get to see how the stands are moved so I can sand down the areas that were under the pads and get some primer on.
Things are slowing down as far as ho...
This video I wanted to show the traditional rigging aboard Norna. We also were working on making an adjustable bobstay, which we had a little trouble doing.

In this episode I got the last coat of anti-fouling paint on. Since it was the Easter weekend and I didn't want to delay getting the paint on I ended up just straining the the paint that had the debris in it rather than try and get it exchanged.
The strainer worked out fine and it didn'...

In this episode I get the first coat of primer on the hull only to find that again this is the time to see all the little imperfections. So another round of sanding smooth all those spots before I applied the second coat of primer.
I also show a quick look at the keel before and after.

In this episode I applied primer to the keel and realize that this was the time that the last little imperfections really show up, but after a little more filling and sanding it looked better.
I also taped off the water line which was exciting because that meant I was getting close to painting th...
