Besides helping Dave where I could, I took over lots of cleaning projects.

bought a camping toilet to use in the evening on our boat.  empty and rinse daily
cleaned inside and out of bimini and dodger and recoated with waterproof agent

first piece is hanging on scaffolding to dry

removed rust from framework of bimini and dodger
varnished cockpit table.  took 2 weeks to varnish cockpit table top and bottom and let it dry in between.  on saw horses inside the water pump house.  had to position myself so my sweat wouldn't drip on the table
