We've told you about the solar panel through the bimini. Here's what it looks like. As you can see, it was flipped up off the radar arch, rotated 90 degrees, one was twisted 180 degrees and then punched through the canvas. It ended up about forehead level upon entering the cockpit from below. It took a few whacks before I remembered it was still there!

We Moved the boat from Morehead City up here to Oriental, since this is where the only canvas folks who understand stack-packs are located. It was a 25 mile/5 hour trip up through a portion of "the ditch" (ICW).

The people here at the Sailcraft Services yard already seem very knowledgeable and confidence building. We are really glad we made the move up here. We'll meet with them on Monday morning and set up a priority list, most of which should be accomplished in a couple of days.

In the meantime, we are off the boat for a couple of nights in a local B&B for some much needed R&R ... real bed, clean shower, maybe even a massage!
