Day 135 of the build of "Alanne". A slow journey to Liverpool today. Road works at Tern Hill meant a one hour wait in a traffic queue. We arrived at 11.45. The sun was shining, so no complaints.
Adam was busy fitting cabinets and cupboards when we arrived. The internal walls and ceiling have yet to be fitted. Alan McNaughton suggested we look at another almost complete boat and check out the oak ceiling and if we liked it they would fit the same on our boat. The carpenter on the almost finished boat gave us a tour of the boat. The finish inside was immaculate and if ours is finished in the same way, we will be delighted. Chatted with Adam about a few minor changes, mirror doors in the bedroom cupboards and the extending width of the bed. "Alanne" is looking good and Adam is hoping to complete in the next two weeks. The plumber came on board to start the fitting of the blown hot air heating system, he was very enthusiastic about this system of heating, He said "It gives instant heat when ignited and heats the boat in minutes", sounds good to me.
We spoke to Alan McNaughton before leaving, he also is hoping to complete in the next couple of weeks. We have still to choose the furnishing and curtain material and Alan Mac has still to sand blast the lower hull before "blacking". We are hopeful that we may start cruising in early July !!!!!!
