Shaft shop gave it the all clear Rick
I'm in Iraq so I've not seen the full report yet - not even seen the full bill yet :/
5 blisters on the hull as well - had them all repaired before bottom painting.
Not the best part of owning a sailboat but what can you do!
Ordered a new transducer as well - having the old depth sounder removed and the hole widened, I'm clearly a glutton for punishment... It was overdue and the haulout can't be wasted.
I've got the lifelines and stanchions off on one side too - took them off before the strut went so now I've got no choice but to replace and spend even more! ( 2 stanchions and the lifelines were toast!)
Not much left before they splash her and do an engine alignment
Big bill coming
