We have decided to have Annapolis Harbor Boatyard repair the two doors that were damaged during the break in of the Lolligag earlier this year. While not owned by the Annapolis Sailyard, AHB does a lot of work on Nordic Tugs and we therefore feel very confident and comfortable with our choice to have them complete the work. In a round-about backhanded way it is a strong testament/compliment to the structure of the doors and the locks on our Nordic that the thieves were not able to gain entry to the boat via the doors. However, what did happen was that the aft door and port side door were rather badly scratched, dented and messed up by the attempts of the bad guys before they gave up trying to get in the doors and broke a window instead. While we would never do so, it would have probably been better to just leave the door unlocked and let the idiots come into the boat to take our stuff without having to do so much structural damage to the outside of the boat.
It looks like we will be here for at least a week or longer depending on the weather. We will need a clear weather window of at least 48 hours so that the primer and subsequent paint coats can dry sufficiently.
