We bought a small microwave and looking for elec. fry pan for the boat...few more convenience items.....
Ken got a few things to make some minor repairs...and do one big enhancement...He added a water line from outside faucet directly into waterline on boat so we can get fresh water direct from faucet outside instead of water holding tank that he has to fill up every couple days.. Friday, Ken started stripping the sails off the boat, then we had to stop for a while late in the evening to do some wine tasting...
Saturday - we dropped the mast...some wonderful friends at the marina helped us..they are so good to us...It stresses me like you wouldn't believe....I did take pictures...going to try to post them....also Linda, our boating neighbor knows how stressed I get, because she gets the same way..when they drop their mast....made lunch for us...delicious! - So later that day we stopped the work, cleaned ourselves up and went to Mass....need all the help we can get...then got back and we all had a marina party...took our covered dish over - great job by the marina people every year.....food excellent...lots of belly laughing...later we went back to the "point" where we dock our boat and a bunch of us sat out till about 10:30 -continued the conversation,laughing and beverages...fun night!
Sunday, up around 8 am- went out for breakfast...got right back and started working on the boat...Ken doing repairs, me cleaning topside,etc. Very very warm and humid a bit...so we stopped and took a swim break in the St. Lawrence River...Not to say it is cold...I think we were in the water less than five minutes...just cooled off....then finished up and loaded up truck...took boat over to the haul out as tomorrow they will pull it and sand blast the keel and bottom, put anti-fouling paint on a few times, then next Friday should be able to put her back in the water.
Yep, this weekend was busy, but on so good!
