Forward hatches are "IN"

Forepeak Hatches

Here's CAI, in his safety glasses, sitting in front of the new forepeak hatches he installed this week.

There will be valuable storage behind them....  Anchor chain and sails.






It's raining and cool today. Finally a break from the hot summer weather.  When it's really hot the fiberglass and epoxy materials (go off) set really fast.

Last week he was working fast to "beat the heat" and slipped, falling down into the boat.  Maybe he cracked a rib or something.  Breathing is painful these days.  He says every time he falls down in the boat it hurts.
