Masquerade...the adventure continues

After a great winter in FL we returned to the boatyard this morning to see how the winter treated the old girl. Happy to report all is well.

Last fall we decided to replace a window that had a slight crack in it. Well, the cold weather moved that slight crack into large status. We also felt the same would happen to the window directly opposite.

So after checking the boat today, we have decided to replace both windows prior to launch. No real surprise there.

Everything else looks just fine.

In the next week or so we will begin taking the winter covering off just leaving enough to cover the two window areas that need attention. The most important part of taking this covering off is to mark it properly for reinstallation in the fall. So we will take extra time with that.

So now we begin again.....think Spring!

About:	We have been sailing on the waters in and around Narragansett Bay and beyond for 30 plus years. We have cruised and raced but now we are only cruising. In mid-July 2008, we launched our new cruising catamaran, a project we have been working on for 12 years.
Extra:	We both started off as early retirees and picked up our launch licenses for something to do on the water while building our new boat. We decided to pursue our captains license and now Bob has his 50T Master with sailing and towing endorsements and Chris has her 100T Master with sailing and towing [...] endorsements. More
