Boathouse Cleanup
« on: April 25, 2016, 14:14:50 »
It's that time of year again.

We'll be hosting the annual Boathouse Cleanup on Sunday (1st May), starting at 10am.

This is where we count all our gear, throw away the broken stuff and generally put the boathouse back into a respectable state.

They were fully cooked, just the last second there was a grease fire and so i could do nothing but watch them char. Nonetheless the other batch were lovely

Are there any boats to be repaired that day? I presume we will re-glue the foam in the yellow pool boat?

The G3 needs a bit of work on the seat anyway. I'm not sure after that

I'm not sure that I'll make it as I think I'm staying in Wicklow after Jacskonsfest.

If the pool boats are being taken out of the pool might I suggest someone also works on taking the knots out of the backband string on the tree playboats as the knots are extremely tight and they make it difficult to get into the boat with the correct foam foot blocks. I think the yellow one actually needs one of the cleats taken off to remove a knot which has been pulled in behind it.

Just as suggestion to get it done before people look to use them over the summer or for next year :)
