The afternoon was spent in the barn prepping the peapods for painting. Gently the primer was sanded baby bottom smooth. I reefed out some caulking and re-caulked the garboards on one of the boats. I also spent some time replacing a deadeye in one of the topmast backstays. The smell of pine tar is lovely. I introduced the crew to some rig maintenance concepts, worming, parceling and serving. Today we will divide and conquer once again. A few of us will be at the schooner while a few paint the peapods so that we can get them out of the barn before they dry out any more than they have.
Have a great day. Be well. Do good.
