A Whole Day With Me Boat!

Post by christopher »

Today I spent the entire day with the boat. She goes in the water in two weeks so I needed to get much done. As usual I only got half of what I set out to do done, but I prioritized and got done what I needed for the day.

Here's a couple shots

A mostly dry bilge

I snapped this as I was driving out for the evening... Until next we meet!

Looks great! Good luck getting everything done, I am in the same "crunch time" mode too - boat leaves my yard in a week!

Nice!

It's amazing what a fresh coat of bottom paint and some time cleaning belowdecks can do.

PS: I see you are building up a proper parts inventory in your bilge ;)

LOL

The PO has left me all sorts of random parts piles. I have plastic baggies full of random unique pieces of hardware and I'm missing tons of hardware to hook up various systems. I have a feeling I'm in for a shock when I go to get her rigged and ready to sail....

I like that you felt the need to snap just one more as you were leaving. I've heard it said, and I believe, if you can leave your boat without looking back it's time to sell her.
