I spent a couple of hours on her today, removing one of the deck beams, one of the longer ones so I can use it to make the jig that will be used to remake the 55 of them that need replacing. To put it bluntly, it was a pain in the ar$e of a task, but it gives me an idea of how strong her construction is.
I also put a floor down in what was the officers toilet which will make it easier to work in there.
Over the next couple of weeks we'll re-hoover her and clean up after the recent work that we have done.
