Three ways round the fleet
This page is the work, in the order it was done. The other two are the boats it is being done to, and everything else that has happened.
Your Bench
Nobody sees the work unless you write it down
A boat can be entered in the registry the day the plans arrive. Add an entry when you have done an afternoon's work, and it appears here.
