Juneau's October weather is notoriously windy, wet and cold. Tuesday's weather was all of the above. Again, Dave had to remove all of the plastic from the structure covering the boat. The wind was shredding the plastic and lifting the large timbers several feet in the air. Some of those timbers came up and dinged up the paint on the starboard side of the boat below the water line, we'll have to touch that up before we go back in the water.
So, now that all of the plastic is down we had to clean everything up, throw out the garbage and stow everything we're keeping under the boat. What an overwhelming task that was, the place was a mess! Thankfully Dave's sister was there to help out!! We got the whole place cleaned up, a load to the dump and everything else stowed under the boat.
Dave, Shawn and Paul met me down at the boat late in the afternoon and we started taking down the rest of the cover. We took all of the wood and conduit down and finally around 7pm we had to stop as it was just too dark to do any more and I was just too wet and cold. Unfortunately we left the place in a big mess again.
I must say though, the boat looks fabulous!! I'll post better pictures tomorrow.
