The Arch

The arch is on, but we still have a few more things to get welded on to it, outboard engine mount, gps mount, gate eyes and the solar panels. Most will happen next week, Warren is still deciding on what size for the panels. We also have to finish the wood work on the toe rails and the lazerette hatch covers. The hatch cover  will be our first go at spraying on gel coat(that's the paint that's on the deck):) We also have about 1000 other projects but we still hope to get out of here in Dec. Oh, we also had to order new sails. I bet your thinking we are crazy! But when we are cruising in that clear blue water in Bahamas with dolphins swimming along side us and I post that picture you might think differently:)

Baby Manatee

Today while working on the back end of the boat we had some visitors. This is the first baby manatee that we have seen. Soooo cute!

We are taking off all the old hand rails and the dingy davits, our new arch should be done next week. Now we have to buy some solar panels.

Today we also decide to take off the wood trim that is just for decoration alone the blue sides of the boat. It's to hard to keep them looking nice. Now we have to fix the screw holes and repaint......one more project:(
