Bellum drive system

Bellum strut has been bent by catching a dinghy line.  She was hauled out Aug 12 and Shipwright has agreed to change the strut for a new one from Alquoquin 


The shaft looks scoured in spots. Investigation a new one.




JC observed the strut is obviously bent.

At least the week has been cold and wet.  


I miss you Bellum
