She needs a lot of work to save her, but the repairs are going well. Sheer plank, beam shelf, beams and covering boards have all been repaired back aft, and all is ready for a new after deck to be laid.

There are four sections of planking to be fitted below the waterline, and four new transverse floors have been fitted. The front and rear of the superstructure is having a lot of repair, and a new coachroof will be fitted. 

Update April 2020

The repairs to the after end of the boat are largely complete now, just the new after deck planking to be laid and caulked. The cabin front and sides have all been repaired, and new corner posts fitted. The cabin main bulkhead has had a large repair section fitted, and a new coach roof in 12mm marine ply, sheathed with glass cloth and epoxy has been fitted. The repair sections of hull planking below the waterline have progressed, having sourced some green Douglas fir, so that the planks can be steamed successfully when fitting.

Update October 2020

After the large programme of repair work carried out over 2019/2020, Freya was re-launched without her interior fit out, or engine, to see how the hull would take up. She has been moved to a shallow berth, do that we can keep an eye on her for a few weeks
