THE JOBZ STARTED!!!

DIRECTION???

G'day All,
I know I've been a little tardy with my updates lately!
Many of you have rung 4 an update, so I'll start a new entry 2nite.
My thyme over the past 2 weex has not been spent id-dilly (wrong spelling I know)!
We have had another Big cat up on the slip 4 a complete re-spray. Lotz and lots of hours of sanding and filling to produce an amazing transformation (wkoa).
I  had decided I was going to roll a final coat on Galleycat when I got sum spare thyme!

However afa seeing the amazing change to "delorian" I'm going for the full re-spray!
The difference in the final finish haz 2B scene 2B believed!
Galleycat haz also been undergoing a change!, with the forward screens being removed and replaced with strengthened supportz.
2nite the Yot is held together with tensioned ropes, a chain block and an "acrow" prop.
 All of these need 2B removed B4 lunch tomorrow as we are heading out 2 Salamander reef 4 a spot of night phishing!
Night thymez have been taken up with the construction of a solar hot water system 4 the Yot.
Conveniently the Catamaran parked next 2 me has a commercially produced unit on itz deck that I'm using for inspiration (wkoa) as I totally ignore their design and build my own.
I've also cleaned up the dinghy trailer that came with the new tender so it can be sold and turned into a new generator for the Yot.
Hopefully once the new Hot water system is online I will only need the Genset for emergency power.
Our fishing trip was a suxcess, however we never made it to Salamander Reef! The wind waz up by the thyme we left harbour so in the spirit of
"The Path of Least Resistance"
 I changed course and headed to the Northern end of Magnetic Island onto my nannygai lump. After a few tries we managed to anchor up on the lump and soon had fish coming aboard.
The wind continued to make life difficult so around 8pm we set off for Horseshoe  Bay.
Dinner  was grilled chicken, fresh coleslaw and potato salad.
We settled in for a night fish and continued to catch long into the night.
Early the following morn the tides and moons aligned with heaps of trevally, javelin fish (grunter) and even a 3 foot cattie keeping us all busy.
Around 10 am after a breakfast of ham and cheese croissants, and a visit from Mick and Kane (dog) from cyclone 3 in Whitsundays last year, we pulled the pick and set sail back to Townsville. Arriving around 1pm.
With that trip complete itz now thyme to seriously get stuck into the refitt and painting prep.
The new fridges have been ordered thanx 2 Brother Mark and the current solar panels have been unbolted in preparation(wkoa) for a complete upgrade. the new gen style panels will more than double the Yotz solar capacity.
I have a couple of Backpackers arriving 2nite so I'll have a hand with the jobs over the next few dayz.
Brother Andrew has decided to fit his 7 meter power cat YOGI with a couple of new sails this week.
Personally I think he's got Yot envy !
and has decided to once again outdo anything I catch.
Big Ash caught a huge feed of sand whiting with his kidz over the weekend (I seem to remember him reminding me to warn him never to take all the kids fishing again).
While Carl even got a fish in this weekend past as well with a jigging session off  Ocean Reef producing 2 Sampson and a W.A Dhufish but with the demersal ban on in Perth, the Dhu lives to fight another day.
I'm guessing Mr Mick will be due back from Croatia anythyme soon.
King Richard is now back from his charity ride through South Africa so calm should return to the yard forthwith.
My 2 guests have now arrived Pia from Germany and Joanna from Belgium. We have the task of painting the pergola well in hand and with any luck the job will be complete by Monday.
.............................>

Well with lotz of help (far removed from my Brazilian possums) the yot now has a painted roof and is ready 2 head towards Magnetic this week.
The girlz R keen to find a Koala while I'm happy to leave the yard with no re paintz this week.
The upcoming week is the conundrum with a desire to return 2 The Reef expressed by both myself and Joanna I think there's a fair chance of another trip out wide!
I'm really beginning to think about Balance!
While I desire the final paint job 2B complete I also enjoy fishing the reef and this is where my conundrum beginz...
As I'm now far ahead of my ridiculous schedule why not take thyme out 2 smell the roses!
After a morning "cruising" the local market itz V8 Heaven! with the final race a Phillip Island B4 Sydney's showdown. And with Tanders HOLDEN running out of fuel aka Whincup itz a really open battle even if the champignon ship haz been decided.
I'm spending far more thyme trying to work out a "Balance" between moving 4ward and
existence comfortableness.
