Starting to get Lady Emma cleaned. Some three hours of jet washing the heavy soiling off and using some TFR (Traffic film remover) on the caked on bird poop etc. She is beginning to look more respectable.
I will be doing some snow foam next but will wait till she is out the water before compound polishing the hull. At that point we will be replacing the anodes, new antifoul and replace the packing glands on the shafts. I would like to renew the tired canopy and have new pin stripes and decals. That will have to wait till the end of this season when I have saved a few more pennies up Lady Emma by Jeff Cranwell, on Flickr Lady Emma by Jeff Cranwell, on Flickr Lady Emma by Jeff Cranwell, on Flickr Lady Emma by Jeff Cranwell, on Flickr

Lady Emma is coming out of the water on the 7th of June.
She will be on the hard for a few weeks whilst we give her bottom a scrub, a new coat of anti foul paint, replace the anodes, new shaft seals and a compound polish. Any other below the water line jobs that need doing can also be dealt with. If all goes to plan we shall re launch her before the end of the month.

Great photos Jeff, thank you.
As you know, we have booked to visit Ros and yourself on Lady Emma, it will be a treat for us. How does Acle compare with Titchmarsh or is there no comparison? |
