Destroyer of bedrooms

The bedroom put up a fight but conceded to my destructive ways. Nothing was left except a bare floor and a very large water tank.


The floor boards were all taken up to check for rust and water. Under roofing felt, that I removed as it was pointless, there was a fair bit of old rust but old and bone dry. This is great and wont need treating (on advice from a local boat builder). The main aim is stopping the source of any more water which for the bedroom was all the bare metal that someone had not bothered to insulate! I applied a great insulation called SuperQuilt. I've also cut some inspection hatches so I can check for dampness in the hull. Shouldn't happen now I've plastered insulation everywhere...


The need for a bed is heavy on my mind and must start building one!
