On Saturday Scott and I woke up bright and early to maximize the ONE day we had this weekend to work on Rasmus. We arrived at the boat yard about 7am and got to work. Scott worked on finalizing the engine compartment insulation and I decided to clean the decks of the 6 months of dust, dirt and grime with a scrub brush just slightly bigger than a tooth brush. I cannot be sure, but I think I may have done nerve damage to my left hand as it is STILL numb from the ocd-ish scrubbing. However, it was worth it - because after 4.5 hours, 3 bottles of Simple Green, 5 rolls of paper towel, 2 pints of bleach and, yes, several damaged nerve endings - our boat looks stunning. She will sparkle when she is splashed (hopefully this week!!)
Love,
Brittany & Scott

Wow, the deck looks great! A toothbrush? I bet your hand does hurt. Can't wait to see Rasmus in the water! Hope you enjoyed your day off on the 4th.

That's determination! :) What soap did you use, it's nicely white. The deck seemed pretty good underneath the dirt.
Wow! The before and after scrubbing photos are amazing! Any time you'd like to scrub Citla's decks, you're welcome to do so...
Now that is one thing I could have actually helped with on the boat!
