Sailing Again
After a Winter of intensive surgery, Mekicevica sails again and in better shape than ever.
But the launching was difficult, and succeeded only at the third attempt.
Along the way, she was saved from floundering by the newly installed bilge-pump.

Mekicevica Mon 14 May 2012 12:20:19Good suggestion, but it is not that. The fitting is too high up. I think the guys that reassembled the keel just used too much Sikkaflex, and some of it is sticking into the centre-plate slot.
