The End of the Big Scrape



At last the scrapping has finished, probably one of the worst boat job that I have had to do but now it's done, it's only a bit of sanding now, so we get a good key for the new sealing coats.
I had to give up for the last 2 days as it rained solidly (it is the Xmas holiday after-all) but before that, I proved that you must not use power tools in a wet environment, the little sander that I was trying to use, decided to let me know in no uncertain terms that it was very unhappy.
The little red light flickered on and the device started to go very slow and emit a strong smell of ozone, at this point commonsense kicked in and I gave up and went inside and started the challenge of downloading a book onto my eBook that I had got for Xmas.
I won't bore you with the the little challenges it presented and the words I called it, I think threatening it with flying lesson's fixed it but I finally did it, very easy when you know how.
