replacement steel for the shell of the hull is now in place and the
internal work can now be completed. There is a part that requires a
bent piece of steel, not having a rolling mill nearby the application
of heat and a chain block will hopefully make the correct curve.
Clever guys, but I guess they have done this kind of work before.
I have included a picture of the visor in use as it may not be
entirely clear to all of my readers what I'm talking about. I imagine
that it is called a visor because of its similarity to that fitted on
a suit of armour.
It is hoped that the work will be completed on Friday evening, get a
coat of paint and then be checked by a surveyor on Saturday morning.
If all goes to that plan we should be back in service that afternoon.
