Stern view

Two small portacabins are stationed on the Quay for varnishing work

The duck boards from the landing platforms are being treated with teak oil while the dodgers from the Bridge wings gleam with fresh varnish

In the other cabin, Derek Brown had been hard at work on deck seats

A gaggle of benches wait on the port after deck

Work in progress on the landing platform steps

Meanwhile in the Engine Room, the condenser was being stripped for attention ...

... the air pump opened for survey ...

... and the low pressure piston rings replaced following problems last season.
