Maintenance 2010 (December 09 - May 10) |
|
Winter
2009 / 2010 maintenance included all external paintwork / extended
winter cover made / deadwood keel all old paint removed / Re-chromed
parts / lighting & electrical work / aft deck refurbished
/ Both keelcoolers
had to be refurbished as they were leaking, unfortunately a number
of gland nuts had broken and the tubes could not be removed,it
was decided to remove the complete units including the manifolds
and fairings,this allowed the hull behind the units to be accessed
and this area was taken back to the wood and repainted. Finding
replacement parts for the newage keelcoolers (tube / gland nuts
/ and seals) proved impossible, and apart from the admiralty brass
tube, the gland nuts & seals had to be made.
