Why we still use tar

Pine tar, linseed and the smell that never leaves your hands.

We are a small yard on the IJsselmeer that brings tired botters and schouwen back to the water. This note collects what worked, what did not and what we would do differently next time.

In short: start simple, write every step down and do not trust the first explanation you hear.

If you have questions or corrections, mention them next time we meet and we will add the useful ones here.
