Boat Prep continues

We continue to make good progress getting the boat ready to launch.  We've had a few small setbacks - yesterday the sink drain in the head decided to come apart.  I tried several times to put it back together but the 1" elbow that threads into the sink drain insert was very flexible and kept popping apart.  We finally bit the bullet hopped in the rental car and make the circuit looking for a better fitting.  Again, Island Water World saved the day and we found what we were looking for.

We stopped and had pizza for lunch then came back to the boat and continued prep work.  We brought a new name/hailing port decal back this year as the old hand painted name was fading very badly.  We used Easy Off to remove the old paint and then cleaned the transom.  The new decal went on very easily and really looks nice.  Lesley is going to take a few pictures on the transom later today.



We are scheduled to launch tomorrow (yard will not confirm if morning or afternoon) then we will move to Le Phare Bleu Marina to finish re commissioning the boat.
