Rebuilding Banyandah |
 |
After
14
years of service |
 |
| We lived on board while building our house - Jerome in foreground - Richmond River behind |
 'Masta Blasta' cleans back to bare hull |
 Even her name disappeared |
 |
 |
| Our ancient diesel was taken out like a rotten tooth | All interior furniture was smashed up and burnt |
 |
 |
| The cockpit and dodger were removed as was all wiring and plumbing | All deck hardware was unbolted and taken to the tip |
 |
Hull rebuild complete - new dodger with full headroom - and new stern cabin house now with headroom |
  |
 |
 |
| First new item purchased was our new stove | Oval door to our 'head' and shower | Toilet & basin, shower fixes to tap |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Top coat | Almost ready to go | Just need to reattach her nameplates |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 Jason and Jerome help unload |
 A grin on Jerome as she first touches water in 18 years |
 Afloat with Jason and Ally with Jayden |
 Party time - Jude tries out her new stove |
 while Jack pops a cork |
 |
 |
 |
| Going off to stand the mast up | Fishing harbour crane does the lift | Jerome and Jack set it in the base |
 |
First sail With the new rig, previousily Banyandah had two masts Now, she has one that is taller and more powerful |
