Today was another accomplishment day as my son and I tore down, cleaned, and re-lubed the Maxwell 20 2 winches on my CP27.  It was a good learning experience as neither of us has done it before.  Thankfully the manual I found in the stacks of papers and booklets on the boat was very helpful in this endeavor.  Still have the Lewmar winch to clean and lube but we ran out of time today.  Also reinstalled the Aquameter Gemini compass in the binnacle pedestal after rebuilding it.  Little steps getting her closer to a springtime launch.
