Shipyard update # 9

Progress continues on the Africa Mercy in Durban's ship repair facility. The pool is now being painted and cleaned, before the final installation of the "wave-catcher" device is complete.

The canopy frame has also been put up above the pool and much of Deck 8. This will provide much-needed shade from the hot West African sun.

Don't worry, that won't be the colour of the water when we swim in it!

Looking forward from the port side of the pool.
