Propellers, Queen & Corgis
written at Monday, June 29, 2009

It was a very productive day today, I am glad for that. We went out to the little harbour to service the boat, removed the propeller to get it re-pitched. Dad would be explaining all the physics and marine jargon which I still do not quite understand.

As we disassembled the parts of the propeller we could see how much marine life has been thriving on the boat's surface, after all the boat has been in the water for over a year till now. We can find anything from sponge corals to mussels, even little ones in the tiny cracks and spaces underneath the boat. It needs a good jet spraying.

Got home and watched "The Queen", superb acting by Helen Mirren. Gave me a greater appreciation and interest in the British Monarchy, however not in the historical sense...I'm a bit curious as to what the Queen eats for breakfast lunch and dinner, must be the best cuisine ever...And pet corgis are really really adorable!
