Launched the boat, carried out buoyancy test.
Port tank took on 6 ins of water. Starboard 2inches. Front tank 2 inches.
Aft tank 1 inch. Need to sort out why. Tried to use the self bailers but
they didnt work. Used the pumps instead. The bailers are still leaking
badly. Discovered sticking a buoy on the top of the mast stops the boat
turning turtle.
Broke the mast raiser on returning.
