Hi folks - WOW it is really hard to keep up the all that is happening on the
Royal Polaris. Here is a quick glance:

1. Big D is prepping bridge for all varnish work
2. Eddie and Aaron - morning work had Aaron plumbing new fuel lines for
machinery. Eddie was grinding on aluminum in the side access hatch, applied
Aluma prep and then painted with Strontuim (this is to protect aluminum) the
afternoon had both guys back in exhaust trunks doing same thing Eddie was
doing up forward. Nasty work - on your belly in tight quarters
3. Billy was working on fuel lines, plumbing water to sea strainers and
building brackets for Raycor fuel filters
4. Tom Dale, Greg Hibbs and Woody Peebles continue to put in 10 hour
days with electrical and mechanical of re-power
5. Laborers (2 of them) grinding on aluminum hatches so welders can
weld them in place
6. Welders remove 3'x3' piece of aluminum on hull and replace and fit
new piece. Once fitted, they wait for Coast Guard to ok the welding on
Thursday. The old aluminum piece of hull was absolutely beautiful.
7. Danny continues to work on all the stateroom drawers, speakers, bunk
lamps etc.
8. Steve Russow doing Formica work
9. Painters plus rest of crew masking and covering to spray primer.
Spraying of primer completed 2:30am Thursday morning.



I do not enjoy this time of year.
