Like the cartoon in which railroad tracks being built from different directions fail to meet when they finally come together, or the one in which the bow of a canoe just built points up while the stern points down, the hinges on our first section of pier and the hinges on the ramp missed each other, by, in our case, a wide margin. An unanticipated miscalculation caused by the fact that the ramp was built a while ago using 2x4s and the new dock section was built recently using 2x6s. On the positive side, a solution has been devised, and will be implemented tomorrow, rain permitting. (We have a forecast of heavy rain, and if the forecast materializes we may be restricted to indoor trim work, of which there is no shortage).

Earlier it was a little boat work in Gore Bay followed by lunch at Buoy's. Got the shrink-wrap off the boat, and Sue power washed everything above the toe rail. Norm was affable and thought a launch sometime next week was a fine idea.

Thanks to Sue for the photos.
