Can I have some more sunshine please?
      #1831564 - 21/04/2008 10:32

Last Monday morning:


Thursday evening:


Now I just need two more painting days, and she can go back in. She's been out of the water 10 days now, which is already longer than I wanted. Please give me sunshine so we can finish the last couple of coats and get her back in the water this week.

Unfortunately, it's currently soaking down here!

An attractive boat. By the way, the link to your website [in your profile] doesn't work; for me anyway.

Why thank you sir. We bought her last summer after she had been waiting for a new owner for 3 years. We then made the choice to sail as much as possible, and to tidy her up this year. Just need 2 more coats on the topsides, another antifoul and the boot top, and then she can go back in.

And thanks for the heads up on the website, I need to renew the domain name this week!

Lovely boat Jesse! We have the sunshine, wall-to-wall, every day, around 25 deg, but I'm having some trouble packing it to send to you. The Met people have promised us some rain for later in the week, but we've heard that before and were disappointed.
Peter.

Right. I've managed to save and export a sunshine file but I'm having trouble downloading and opening it on my laptop in the UK. Any ideas?



I would ask you where is it, but it'll be too easy for you.
