Boat platform preparation work - week ending - 4th March 2023

Wednesday 1st March saw a larger than anticipated squad meet at Boat of Garten Station the task was to commence preparation work for tarring the main platform. 

I didn't expect the trench! - transpires it is for electrical ducting for S&T purposes, which Big Davy and his wee digger neatly dug.


He assisted Georgie in breaking up the existing old uneven tarmac before she loaded into spoil wagons. 


Once levels worked out, we proceeded removing benches, barrels and other platform furniture before starting to remove the concrete slabs.

Thanks to Mike, Martin (above) Michael, Roddy, Andrew and Davy (for also providing afternoon entertainment)

Ian reports - On Saturday 4th more visible progress
 

ducting neatly buried below


With Georgies help and the judicious use of the whacker plate, fixed by John Sinclair, the area to be tarmacced has been whackered and set to there or thereabouts.

Many thanks to Martin, Les and David for their hard work and Ian (for report & photos)
