We launched this morning for the season. Launch slot was at 8 am with a
1:45 drive to the boat. Had to VC-17 the cradle pad areas before
splashing. Rained on us from the house until about 20 minutes from
boat. Then the rain held off until we were at the dock and tied up.
Then the rain came in buckets. Did I mention that it was 39 degrees F
with the rain?
Boat is floating. New PYI Packless shaft seal, re-installed the rebuilt
water heater and cleaned up the cabin before we finally headed back
home, cold and wet. When we go back, we will install the Cajun Ropes
line set, start on the Autopilot installation, and charge the water
system. The admiral is ready to start on the teak taffrail, handrails
and companionway. Not to mention bending on the sails and planning the
lazy jack design.
