Here are some photos taken by Bruce Macdonald (wharfinger of Maritime Heritage Marina and OLAS member) today of Ragna out for a sail. The sailor today is Arnt who was also the lead on this build. She sure looks pretty!
PLANKING
Work is continuing on the Buttonswan project.

OH! OH!
Well this is what the team faced last Saturday when they arrived at the workshop!
Our shop is quite small really and with all the tools, supplies and
a boat hung on the side of the shed it is a lot of weight.
That is some crazy angle!

We also participated in the Winter Wander festival in partnership with the Maritime Museum and Georgina manning the knot tying station for the few brave souls who ventured out on the stormy day. Thanks everyone!
