Time to plan the next stages of the restoration of Mai Star II.
Now that the Christmas break is drawing to an end. It is now time to plan the next stages of the restoration of Mai Star II. One of the first jobs when I open the boatyard on the 4th of January is going to be to recover the boat with the temporary framework with a new cover after the framework is repaired. During this last year the framework got damaged and had to be taken down and put to one side and put in storage and a cover put over the boat while I was engaged in working my day job as a boat builder running my own yard, so Mai Star II was put on the back burner for the year while work in the yard had to be done first to pay the overheads for the business, then all the Covid restrictions made it difficult to get work done as suppliers were on short time and delays in get equipment and materials from other parts of the world. This all as made for an interesting past year working in a small boatyard by yourself without the company of other people to bounce your ideas...
