The Coho Arrives!!!

All credit to FedEx, the packages arrived this morning a day ahead of its estimated arrival date. I got a call from them last night to arrange payment of the customs duties, and sure enough it was released and arrived at my office this morning via courier.

3 boxes arrived. One with the wood panels in it that I'm yet to open, I figured it'd be a pain in the arse to re-seal it and get it to the car this afternoon.

The second had the rudder, coamings, hatch kit, braces and so on.

Third and final box held all the fibreglass cloth, epoxy & hardener, syringes, wood flour, unfortunately the resin and hardener look like they have leaked. No damage done, but it's a bit messy and has meant everything in the box is very, very sticky.

Looking forward to getting them home and checking everything off. If the rain stops, I might even be able to get out to the shed and begin work, or at least a trip to Bunnings to get some sort of table jigged up as a work bench.
