TUULI PROJECT-5
Just playing around a bit.



I do my best to categorize all the different posts. In fact it is quite simple as long as I avoid the human error factor.
Here you will find the posts I uploaded while we were sailing with our 1wheelfloatinglady, a ’77 Nautor 43 Swan, one of the 21 motorsailing vessels Nautor Swan build.
We changed that just a bit. Since november 2024 we are living on a motorboat. A Vripack Searocco 1500.

Still on schedule, but lots of little expected and of course unexpected things which are slowing us down.




The lower front part of Lady Tuuli is teak free. Well almost, i still need to remove the teak underneath the two salon hatches.
I also started drilling out the millions of little screw holes and filling them with epoxy putty.
Tomorrow it’s two weeks since I started. Steady on schedule 😉

Still going strong. 40 hours of deck pealing and a couple more doing other stuff.
Still seven weeks left to finish this. Has anyone some spare knees left?


And no deck 🙂 Today the Tuuli projekt really started. I have two weeks to get the 47 year old teakdeck off. That’s going to be a battle for sure.




Or as we say in dutch ‘Woudsend‘ or in Frisian ‘Waldsein’.
Today we sailed our lady Tuuli from Makkum to Woudsend. Except for one little shower of rain it was a beautiful day. I really don’t understand why hardly anyone keeps sailing in wintertime.
But then we’re also leaving the water for some maintenance next week 😉
