Construction Year 3
Not a summer, we would have gone to the engine room. Again, in June 2000.
Electrification was completed except mast lights in September.
In October, we reached back to new occupations! We started to tile
bathroom's floor. Neither of us had not tiled ever, so the accessories
were fantastic. But the end result, however, is ok Pakkelipokka has a
light blue tile toilet's floor!
I
must say that the weather during the project was strange! There was heavy
summer rains, last autumn floods, and this fall and early winter has also
been amazing. In November was 10°C (50F) warm, until the Christmas week, then
temperature went down and we got a little snow.
In autumn we had too much paid labour. We used, however, the warm weather
to varnish, paint and to put all those small parts in place. In spring
2001 we had a situation where one could say: "shoemaker's children without
shoes" - in our case, the metal-mans boat without any metal parts.
