Three to Fifteen.

Not much be happening on the cruising front while I wait for an appointment for the dentist to weld a new crown to one of my gnashers, apparently, the one that fell out which had been in place the last 30 years is not fit for purpose.

An old pal of mine from my working days I haven't seen in 21 years popped in on his way back up to Scotland. We had a good laugh before he left for the M6.

The football was a bit of an anti-climax but England did well to reach the final.

Where I think this bunch of international players differ from past teams is that they all appear to be thoroughly decent men off the pitch.  No negative press at all only positive - which wasn't the case in teams from past eras -now if only the fans could behave themselves.

So as the three lions go out with a squeak, let's hear the fifteen roar against South Africa.

Jet washed, wire-brushed and a coat of Aqua-steel applied

First bum coat on and gunwale scars sorted.

Hazmat suited Sue.

Jamie welded on four new sacrificial anodes, the gunwale was sanded and undercoated.

Four coats of Intertuf 16 on the bottom and two coats of gloss on the gunwale.
