Dry Docking Part 2 and Back to Bridge No.33

 Bit of catching up to do with our docking photos now we are out of the dry dock and have moved back to Bridge No.33 on the Leicester line.

5 miles 1 lock in 1hr 50mins. what3words ///deprives.name.registers

Once the hull had been jet-washed Tuesday we had to wait for the hull to dry

Tuesday morning Jo made a start on rubbing down and primering the bow

Once dry the hull didn't look too bad

!st coat of blacking

Jo got started on the tunnel bands

Wednesday Jo did more on the bow

I did the weed hatch cover

Jo blacking the rubbing strakes between the tunnel bands

Whilst we were outside in the fresh air for a break we spotted this muntjac deer running across the field behind the dry dock

Stern painting finished

Bow painting finished

And the other side

This morning the dock was refilled with water

Nearly ready to leave

We temporarily moored at the wharf to take on water

Welford lock

Welford junction

I knew we were 28 miles from Leicester at this point, it said so on the mile post

Now moored near Bridge No.33 again
