No more cling film windows
Hello! And oh buoy, I'm writing this slightly hungover (oops), and spent a lot of this week either away, working or recovering. Still, the new window arrived on Monday, and on Wednesday I did the final deed:


No more plastic, taped-up sheets! And it was nice to have the pontoon instead of balancing on the paddle board with a sealant gun...
Next up I shuffled around some of the mess, and did half of the starboard panelling:

I've been dragging this on, but I'm looking forward to finishing it next week. Then I can trim the edges, put in the lighting coves and start varnishing.
The heat is also messing up the wood — some of the gaps below are 3mm, and I'm certain they were tight together at first:

My safety certificate also expires soon, so I booked an examiner for Thursday. There's no wood burner or gas system yet, but I'm curious what he'll say about the taped-up live wires...
Until next Sunday!
