The Last Day Before Splash-In

I woke up this morning refreshed and ready to go. Took the dogs on a nice walk and then headed over to the boatyard. First I scheduled the boat to go in the water tomorrow morning (Tuesday, July 1, 2008), got the nuts and bolts I needed to finish the dingy and got it ready to go. Then I washed it and hoisted it up on the davits. I was worried that the dingy wouldn't fit due to the Hydrovane, but the dingy inflatable tube lays nicely against the big stainless steel tube support for the vane and it may even be more stable than before. The guys shifted the stands over so I could finish the bottom paint. I even put plastic bags over the stands after they were moved so they wouldn't blemish the already painted areas. Then I started moving things around in the boat to make room for the loads of my belongings that will start to come today and in the next several days. The rear cabin is going to be the main storage room until I get things more organized, which will take some time. This time tomorrow I should be in the water.
