9/25/10: Rotten Wood & Rusty Nails

[ida may]

Gordon, Elbert, and David Gladden, Frank Antes, and Tom Evans continue to tear out rotten wood and rusty nails from the starboard side deck and railing of the Skipjack Ida May. Most of the railing will be salvaged,
but the wood under the railing is rotten as it can be. The nails are especially hard to pull out of the oak ribs. Our backs and shoulders are sore to say the least.
