Less than 40 days

Well, we are less than 40 days away from our scheduled departure (October 25th), and the list of things to do is mounting as our time seems to be flying by. Regardless, a departure date is a departure date, ready or not. It would take something pretty serious to stop our plans. We have been researching, working, and purchasing needed equipment tirelessly. The boat is 'under construction,' meaning we put full cover over it so we can leave tools on the deck without other people in the marina complaining.


We also took down the jibsheet, ripped up some of the decking, half hazardly (or more hazardly!) taken apart the electrical system, as we are waiting on replacement parts/materials. I scraped and sanded off the old name from the transom.

Basically, we are currently unsailable, nameless, and without power. Can't wait to pull the pieces together and make this happen! I've always liked a challenge, and the timeclock is always a good competitor, so here we go....
