Making a fresh start in 2025 and get some major work done on Gadfly II / Mai Star II
After a year where many plans were made and then shelved and remade and shelved again because of life work imbalance. It is now time to make afresh start and get down to some serious work and get the project underway once and for all. The first job will be to refit the one frame that was removed from the port side bow, then replace the tops of all the other frames which need replacing. Then, we can refit the beam shelf back into position, then be able to refit the foredeck beams back into position, Then this will enable us to start to refit the top planks. While this is being done we will be able to paint out the inside of the hull with yacht primer to protect the hull from any further problem down the line. Now that we have an extra pair of hands to help we should be able to get on with the work we are planning to get done.
