March saw Calypso on the RCYC slipway for antifouling and general inspection of all underwater skin fittings, prop and shaft and replacement of sacrificial anodes by me.

A few gellcoat repairs and buffing by a contractor.

She had been bought without a survey having been done and thankfully there were no surprises!
Cecile is seen above managing a last minute touchup.

Good friend Braam du Toit with family having a lunchtime snack in Calypso's spacious cockpit.

One of the first visitors to Calypso in the V & A Waterfront Marina in January 2010 was Elizme' with son Adriaan out from Paarl. Thats me sitting in front of the closed companionway hatch - I had left the keys at home! There is a secondary hatch further forward which I was able to open.
