17 JUNE 2010

Well Nemetona is up at Pittwater now. Grant and myself took her up there on Monday the public Holiday. The sail up there was a good one. SW winds 10 - 15 knots about 1m following swell. Arrived at Bayview and parked her safely. the trip in total took about 5.5 hrs. All I can do now is wait and not bother the work men to much. I have listed the items below that we are getting done.

- Water maker
- SS davits at the rear to hold Tender
- Radar
- Sink and stove infills to create more bench space
- Access door under main table for storage
- 3 extra batteries/ Total now 8 house 1 engine 2 winch and windless
- 2 new solar panels/ total now 4
- Replace hatches: warranty
- Repair timber work in forward head : warranty
- Mount life raft under Stern seating
- Check ducted heating systems as is faulty

Hopefully I will get to Pittwater next week to see how things are progressing, and not intrude to much on the work that is being carried out. I think that she will be up there in total for about 3 weeks maximum but hopefully it will be less.

SUNDAY 6 JUNE


Well set of about 8 am from Cabaritta water was calm all the way to the Harbor Bridge. The weather forcast wasnt the best but we thought that we would have a look out side anyway. Unfortunately the swell was about 5 to 6 meters and the wind reaching 35knots from SE. We decided to turn around and head back to port rather than risk any damage or accidents. Got a good drenching coming back into the harbor. Arrived back at Cabaritta about 11 and tide up safely with a hand on the dock from Screensaver after contacting him on VHF 72. The weather is supposed to crappy till Monday so will more than likely make a plan for Tuesday now.
