Today we were sailing the rough seas without our full crew. We only had four crewmen available to work on our project today due to a preparation meeting for the Mountain Alliance Alternative Spring Break trip. Sara, Connie, Cole, and Corin worked extra hard to finish some important pieces to help make our boat float!
We made up for our small crew today with admiral Todd joining in on the fun today. He worked with Cole to caulk the rest of the cracks and crevases in the hull of the boat all the way to the front of the bow. He can be seen preparing to work in the bow section of the boat.
When Cole was not caulking, he pulled double duty sanding the port and starboard sides, preparing the fiber glass for another layer of adhesive to be applied.
Corin worked with Dan, our community volunteer on finishing the foundation for the mast. Corin has been working in the tight cabin space for the past few work days and he is relieved that the mast is almost ready to be permanently attached to the hull of the boat! 
Connie and Sara are still our masters of fiber glass, working hard to finish sanding, and then reapplying another layer of adhesive over the existing layers of fiber glass. We are hoping to add one more additional layer of adhesive before we sand the deck smooth, ready for paint.
