Chesapeake Bay Skipjack

At Scott's Cove: 10/16/10 Mast Step

Gordon, Elbert, and David Gladden and Tom Evans work on a windy fall day on the Skipjack Ida May in Chance MD. Tom sands and paints the old railings. They are still in good shape and will be put back once we patch up the starboard side. Gordon and Elbert find that the top layer of the mast step is rotten, but not too difficult to take out and it won't be hard to replace either. We sure did miss Frank Antes, who had prior commitments elsewhere. Notice the camera shot straight down the centerboard's well.
