Another Productive Day

Got to Rosneath at 5.30 a.m but had to inflate dinghy and paddle out from road, as didn't have code for access to yard.

Checked for water under starboard bunk, but only a little dampness at forward end. May be coming from condensation on jubilee clips on heads. Checked locker aft of water tank where pipe comes out of tank and it was completely dry.

Emptied out bilge - about 1" water had gathered.

Eased six shrouds by 2 turns, forepeak door still does not close properly.

Secured baton for sliding door under sink by using clamps to re-anchor nails - may have tp repeat in future and put wood glue on it.

Gave worktops on both sides a good clean. Also cleaned Origo stove.

Repair done to dinghy yesterday seems to be holding well, but discovered new hole! Fixed this at the yard but it doesn't look like a great job.
