It's soon going to be fitting out time again Wahaay!

Time to top up the tanks, flush out the domestic water system, swab the decks and refill all the lockers with fresh bedding, clean crockery and full bottles of 'Arrr Jim Lad'

I'm also going to give No Regrets a good dose of Oxalic acid to whiten up her topsides, and pressure wash all the Wintery green stuff away again, and she's all ready to go to a new owner, complete with her BOA pennant and full complement of BOA clothing!

Who else is excited?    

'No Regrets' is now a beautiful Broom 30, berthed in Bray, on the River Thames. I used to own a Birchwood, honest!

Well, I was up at the marina yesterday and it was still mighty chilly.  Given the wind chill, I reckon there's still a fair chance of freezing, so I'm leaving the heater & dehumidifier switched on for a few more weeks!

Lots of floating pennywort around as well.

Whitens and destains the GRP.

Very cheap (Ebay) and simply mix with water, splurge on, leave a while and wash off...

I'll let you know how it goes
