We're back at the dock. Sling seems to have done some damage to the hull paint, not to happy about that. I've decided I'm going to have to sand the deck paint down and repaint with the kiwigrip paint. the paint i used is just too slick and it's not staying stuck down. I guess that's what I get for trying to use the old non skid. Oh well. Next thing on the list is finishing the aft flooring. I want to get that done soon. |

I sanded the ENTIRE hull myself yesterday, tons of work. Today was wipe down, tape out and primer. Paint tomorrow, splash monday..... it's the home stretch!!! |

Finished the bottom today, installed the cutlass bearing and prop, did propspeed on the prop and the surveyor did the survey. Tomorrow i start sanding the hull for repaint. |

Went ok, we were too big to get into the lift so we had to undo the front forestay, this was ok, except in the process i drug it accross my freshly painted deck putting a HUGE gouge in it :( Everything else went great. I do have a problem that cropped up on the sattelite dish, i think it's the directv receiver or at least i hope it is, will do some quick testing tomorrow. Not cool! Lots of scraping to do, the bottom was in really bad shape, i can see bottom paint from three bottom jobs ago! |

In August Amy and I went to Key Largo to get our dive certification. With the expense of dive equipment it's taken us some time to get dive gear, but we're finally there and will soon be able to go diving! First order of business will be of course be scraping the bottom!!!! |

We will be hauling out in March for the insurance survey, but I will of course be doing several tasks at that time so I figured it's time to start the list. -Paint the Hull |
