On 26.4. I write the first post on my work on Antares' hull. Together with Paul, I had already scraped off a good part of the old antifouling and, after an initial \"no, that can't be true\", had to admit that it was actually osmosis bubbles grinning at us underneath. I had started with the work on April 24th. On Friday the ninth of June it was time: All work was completed and Antares could return to her element.<\/p>\n\n\n

But it all worked out in the end. On Thursday evening, I had painted what we call \"the Wasserpass\" until dusk, this strip that roughly marks the waterline and whose easy-to-clean paint was used, at least in the past, to easily remove the inevitable dirt washed up by the water.
Originally I had considered making the water pass green, because my masking tape was green, and I thought that color offered a nice contrast to the other hues of the boat, but to buy water pass paint is unfortunately only available in red, white and black. So white it is, although black would probably look less dirty.
So I masked off the waterline again from front to back and applied two coats of the waterpass paint, which fortunately went pretty quickly (so about two hours)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Im vergangenen Jahr stand ich bei Marinetechnik T\u00f6rper, einem Laden, den ich nach anf\u00e4nglichem Z\u00f6gen heute gerne besuche, weil man kompetent beraten wird, alles Relevante am Lager ist und die Preise sehr ok sind (zum Teil deutlich g\u00fcnstiger als im Versandhandel). \nAllerdings, und das begr\u00fcndet mein urspr\u00fcngliches Z\u00f6gern, finden sich viele online Bewertungen, die den Menschen bei T\u00f6rper, um es vorsichtig auszudr\u00fccken, eine gewisse Spr\u00f6dheit im Umgang mit den Kunden attestieren. \nIm vergangenen Jahr also war ich dort und suchte Farbe, ich glaube, damals war es noch das klassische weiche Antifouling. Und wie ich so, zusammen mit der Chefin, durch die Regale sehe, f\u00e4llt mein Blick auf die Dose im Artikelbild. Als \"compulsive reader\", sprich: jemand, der geradezu zwanghaft alles liest, was ihm in den Blick ger\u00e4t, lese ich die Aufschrift. Aber als jemand, der nach der \"Ganzheitsmethode\" lesen gelernt hat, sind Worte, die mir nicht im Alltag gel\u00e4ufig sind manchmal verwirrends. In diesem Fall hat sich in meinem Kopf ein \"s\" in die \"Wasserpassfarbe\" gemogelt und so wurde sie zur \"Wasserspassfarbe\" - ich fragte am\u00fcsiert die Herrin des Ladens was denn bitte Wasserspassfarbe sei und hatte dabei Bilder von fr\u00f6hlichen Kindern auf Wasserspielzeugen im Kopf. Ich will mal so sagen: Ihr Blick auf meine Frage war sehr k\u00fchl und sie fand wohl keine Worte, mir zu antworten :D<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
On Friday morning the crane appointment was due. I had to \"quickly\" attach the sacrificial anode to the keel and remove the masking tape on the water pass. With the latter, it became clear that the paint had not yet fully cured. This meant that the slings in which the boat would hang on the crane would at least press into the paint, perhaps smearing it a bit, but I couldn't change that now. The harbormaster was already waiting with his little Deutz tractor that would pull the boat from the parking area to the crane. This tractor is worth a story all its own, because it is almost 70 years old and still performs its services without complaint. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The system of storage racks is quite practical: the boats stand on a steel frame, which has four pick-up points. A trolley is then pushed below the rack and can hydraulically lift the whole package at these four points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

when I see it correctly, the tractor is a Deutz F1L 514\/51<\/a>The single cylinder Diesel engin has all of 1330ccm displacement and puts out a whopping 15HP<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When it came to pushing the boat around a tight curve on the trolley, I was always worried that the delicate front wheels might come right off. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
