Midday at the dock and cottage
Kevin is at the dock preparing to glass the dinghy centreboard case; Jenny is at the cottage organizing the finished forms and tending the seed packets.
Kevin works at the dock while the pressure drops, noting the humidity prevents the epoxy from curing. Jenny stays at the cottage managing the drying seeds and organizing paperwork. The tide remains high, limiting access to the tide pools.
You stand at the dock with the dinghy hauled up, the centreboard case open and sanded. The epoxy tub is half full, fibreglass mat scraps nearby. Humidity hangs heavy; you mix a small batch first to test cure before committing to the full layup.
Kevin — mix a small test batch of epoxy in a clean tin, same ratio as always, brush it onto a scrap of mat on the dock planking and start the watch timer.

No good.
Scrape the test batch off the dock plank with a putty knife, toss the scrap mat in the bin, and set the epoxy tub back in the shade with the lid loose. Walk to the cottage to get the stainless bolts, washers, and nylocs from the tool roll.

You set the signed medevac forms in a dry envelope on the table, ready for the supply boat. The heirloom seed packets are spread on newspaper near the stove, inner layers still damp; you turn them gently and check the tin's seal, then glance at the barometer — 1018 hPa, steady.
Jenny — walk to the wood stove to check the fire, then check the rain tank level.

Jenny — pick up the pencil and return to the sketch of the tide-pool succulents.
