Two steps back before one forward

Bit of an update - the leg was serviced and new bellows, UJ and Gimbal bearing fitted. So quiet now! Sounded like a bag of spanners before and I thought that was because there was no soundproofing. I took Rebel Runner back to Cowes where she was lifted out and put in a shed to be gutted. There has been delays due to Cowes week and Fastnet race where you can't get the attention of boat fitters but at last a start has been made. All the cockpit side lining was removed and all the furniture in the wheelhouse is out. It has to get worse before it gets better. I am collecting a new side panel to house engine controls and a galley unit from Garry tomorrow, I have seen the photos and they look stunning. I'll be taking them over to Cowes with galley fittings, hatches etc. for the start of the build phase.

Problem is the builder is now on holiday for a week then I am away for a week so I hope to see it starting to come together in two weeks time.
