Title: Torsk on Feb 26th
Post by: Gil Bohannon on February 27, 2011, 08:04:15 PM
This past Saturday, a large group of the local crew got the chance to visit Torsk in dry dock. For many, this was the first time seeing her high and dry!

The first photo, taken by Ellie Bjerkaas, is the crew in front of the boat. I took the rest of the shots. I really like the photo taken directly behind her stern. It shows the shape of her hull quite well.

There are 75 photos in the Facebook album for Saturday, so take a look when you can.

Plans for this coming week include completing the welding repairs, and painting the hull.

We won't be undocking yet. Constellation still has quite a bit of repair work on her hull that needs to be done. The last photo shows her starboard side as of Saturday. Probably another two weeks or so.
