Not much boat work happening this weeked, as I'm in the airport waiting to go back to Norway. Thanks Amex for not booking the flight I wanted :)

Got some stuff done yesterday, installed the Victron control panel, so I can now see the state of the batteries and how much mains power has been used. I was able to monitor how much power Mary needed to run her hair straighteners and query as to the necessity of using this. I can see her getting tired of this new source of information before I do.

Dave Hill (son of Les Hill, the last commercial owner of Misterton) has sent us some old registration documents, and a friend of his, Mike Brown, has some old photos he's scanning in for the website. Thats one of the nice things about having an old barge (as opposed to a new one) is the history and connections it has. Here is the first picture he sent.

More progress next weekend I hope.
