      Building 'Tamara': | 
    |
   | 
         | 
    
| The galley area starting to take shape.. | 
      Saloon in progress, looking forward, chain locker just visible, bunk bases fitted and one partial bulkhead. | 
    
   | 
         | 
    
| The port bunk, note leg space boxed out, projects into saloon. | 
      Saloon practically complete. | 
    
   | 
         | 
    
| Back
to the completed boat, she is way back in the yard and needs to be
dragged to the street front. Two pipes and greased skids were used. | 
      Judicious maneouvering of the pipes was needed to get lined up with the narrow passage. | 
    
   | 
         | 
    
| It actually worked out with a few centimeters on either side. | 
      Next day the lowbed trailer and crane arrived . . | 
    
   | 
         | 
    
| By skidding the boat to the street front only a 40 tonne mobile crane was required. | 
      Just about ready to go off . . . | 
    
   | 
         | 
    
| After a surprisingly short time we are in the harbour and the crane is waiting. | 
      She is nicely balanced on internal slings | 
    
   | 
         | 
    
| And its into the briney | 
      No leaks, engine starts and we are off to the marina. |
