I only did 3 out of 4 winches yesterday so started the day early with the final winch and finished that by 10am, now I need a break and then comes the really difficult part of cleaning up all the black grease remains from my major spill yesterday. That will probably take much of the day and I’ll combine the cleaning work with a fibreglass re waxing of the cockpit and will probably need quite a bit of the rubbing compound that I’ve got on board. I don’t know what I’ll do to fix up the teak, as I’m leery of using mineral spirits on the deck planks directly. It took me more effort to clean up after myself than to do the winch work; I ended up using rubbing compound and waxing the cockpit area and table, and haven’t got any interesting pictures to post so I’ll put an “action” sequence of the winch cleaning up on this page.
