Plumbing was torn out and redone, as was almost all of the electrical wiring. Walls were replaced with more durable, as well as more fire-resistant, material. And it wasn't the only thing happening in town. Over a dozen workers took part in the winter project, organizing and using materials delivered on the supply ship Greenwave in February. The staging area was in a small building called the Playhouse.
Major changes are in the works for the serving and eating areas of the galley next winter, too.
The plan is to open out the seating area to the exterior walls, add windows along the walls, and put in a cathedral ceiling - including skylights. Bruce is happy with the way things went over the winter, and is looking forward to his departure for warmer climes.
