Stepping stone

Makes climbing up and down the boat a slightly more convenient task. Took approximately 30 minutes to produce from an odd piece of plywood and 1,5 meter nylon-line. There should be another step below but we didn't have enough plywood onboard, shall go search for more when we get to Cartagena this weekend. Plywood will also be needed for the new bulkhead that is going to get done, not sure if we'll be lucky to find marine ply though since this isn't your typical boating destination. Also need to fetch correct sized shackles as well as epoxy coat the steps.

Excellent Valentine's gift !

I honestly appreciate a man that makes someting with his hands to make things more convenient for his beloved...

Arrgghhh ... this is valid, with or without second meaning. ;-))

No need for a second step. Fit some rope long enough to lower that one by around 15 cm.
