Gone are the days of paper towel curtains :D (Patreon)

Hi guys!

I'm sure some of you have noticed the "less than classy" looking curtains aboard Athena (aka the paper towel curtains in the saloon) over the years. It's finally time to put a stop to that! Dometic reached out to see if we would be interested in some of their blinds and skyscreens. Ava was very interested, me initially not so much but seeing them in place I must amid the boat does look a lot better.

It was also time for yet another hull scrubbing. Really the hull was in good shape the main issue was our prop. So far applying copper coat seems worth it. We have already saved one haulout and re-applicaiton of antifouling (it's almost been two years since Athena splashed). Depending on where in the world you're located the cost of re-applying bottom paint varies but I shutter at the though of the cost of doing it in the UK ;) 

I hope you'll have a fantastic weekend! Thank you so much for your support :) Stay safe :)
