2011 Season

The boat is uncovered, it got an oil change , the engine is running. We have fresh bottom paint
I also put on the new curtain rods that i bought 2 years ago they came out of a Catalina.
The clips and attachments came from sailright

2011 Season

The continuing saga of the mast step
That all so far unless I sell the other boat and get more working capital
Short on funds but not wind so things will float and move.

End of the season

Its over the mast is coming down this weekend and we are going to winterize and put the boat to bed
I took the measurements of how far I have to move the mast u bolt out to fit into the ones on the deck
Once this is done everything will finally fit for the mast step next year  I hope
The Bimini is also going to get an adjustment so that the back stay can pass thou without it taring everything up
The engine is fine and runs great now that i put in the voltage resister for the distributor
I do have to do something about the water intake it gets clogged constantly and is a pain to clean when the boat is in the water  A project for next year
