We've finished the bottom painting minus the bottom of the keel. For that we'll need to be raised up off the blocks in the travel lift. We'll do that just before we launch. Launching is what is in doubt! Latest updates on Hurricane Mathew now have it potentially coming on shore in North Carolina which would mean stronger winds here in Deltaville. We'll decide on Wednesday about staying or leaving the boat. If we're to leave we have to remove all our canvas enclosure, remove our genoa, drop our boom to the deck, lash our mainsail to the boom and tie our dinghy under the boat. Wednesday and Thursday could be very busy and very tense. At least it was a beautiful day today.
Fair winds & Smooth sailing,
Elaine & Lawrence S/V Elle & I
