Hi folks;
Sunday kept 5 crew members busy the entire day continuing to clean the
engine room and make it sparkle. Believe me, it was not easy and between
Saturday and Sunday, it took 90 man hours to complete.
Our paint crew arrived early only to find that the Strontium had not cured
because of the cool weather and would have to wait until Monday morning
before sanding.

Today was somewhat chaotic. The engine room crew got both auxiliary engines
and generators into the boat. Electricians are starting to put conduit in
place. Gearbox was hooked up to center main engine by 5:30 pm Monday.
Painters along with crew sanded all Strontium areas and a total of 8 men
applied filler to hull the entire day.
Big D started masking for varnish work in the bridge. In between other jobs
he will sand and varnish bridge with 3 coats.
Aaron and Eddie had the nastiest job of all the day squeezing between
exhausts lying on their bellies scraping and cleaning metal. I will
guarantee you that by the time they got home it would take at least on hour
in the shower to get clean. The best thing about these two was they could
still smile and kid around after a very tough day.
Enjoy the photos
