We're really happy with the shelter.  It's a great place to work on boats and masts.  It's not a bad place to park the Smart care either.  Mr. Kitty thinks it's pretty cool too.  He loves to hang out in the new shelter/shop








The shop is looking good too.  Karen keeps this nice and clean.  Thanks to her for her organizational skills. They are priceless, indeed.
We are waiting for the cyanoacrylate glue to repair the mast track on Tridarka.  We are in search of some lead shot to place in the bottom of the rudder as well.
A big whoops happened on the way back from Cedar Key.  We did a few miles with the rudder hanging down.  Notice the large flat spot ground at an angle by the road. I figure the abrasion looks about like a 20 grit.  I am taking this opportunity to drill cores in directly into the base of the rudder where lead shot can be pored along with epoxy.  You can see the glue-up in the vice that will serve as a cap to reshape the rudder.
