Build Day 128

Day 128 of the build of "Alanne". Another 10 days have passed since our last visit. Its Friday 13th June 2014, so we are hoping its not going to be an unlucky day.
It was a lovely warm sunny morning when we arrived at Collingwood Boats. We went straight to the build workshop to see "Alanne". At a distance, it seemed not much had changed. But a closer inspection revealed Adam had been very busy. Bulkheads were complete and a lot of the electrical wiring was in place. Various cupboards and galley fittings were now in place and "Alanne" was starting to look like a real narrow boat. On the rear deck a hinged lockable panel had been fabricated from steel to cover the engine control panel, hopefully this will deter any casual tea leaf intent on stealing our boat. We discussed a few requirements from the specification list including the wiring for solar panels and satellite dish wiring loom. Hopefully this will now be integrated into the build so that Adam doesn't have to remove wood panels to retro fit things.
We had a chat with Garry Evans and told him we are delighted with the boat and the finish which Adam is achieving. We agreed to visit again next Friday. Lets hope that all goes well and "Alanne" is even closer to completion.
