Well I’m off to Key West tomorrow. My buddy Chuck will be making the passage with me. Sam and Guin will be going on vacation to New Jersey for Guin’s 4th birthday, and not making the trip, I’m really bummed.
Splendid’s glass work is done, however she is far from fair. Darrin and I painted all the glass work with mopoxy (epoxy paint) which we are using as primer. Splendid is white. I’ll be fairing and painting in the Keys and beyond.
Splendid is now the owner of a 4-person, off-shore, Viking life raft. I’ve never owned a life raft before, but what a nice piece of insurance. It will get stowed in a lazerette and hopefully never touched until it needs to be inspected in 3 years. It really is an amazing piece of equipment. Check out Viking by clicking on their link on the left side of the page. If Splendid sinks and I need to deploy it I’ll be looking to get a haircut, apartment, and a job, yuck!!!!!
Man I have a bunch of work today. I need to clean, clean, clean, install my winches, cleats, and the starboard track. I also need to visit West Marine and a few other places. Sorry I cant chat more. Did you see the new video?
Peace everyone.
