Sailing with Celestial's Tripp

We are a Tripp 47 racing boat turned cruiser that we bought in Maine in 2009. We sailed it through the Panama Canal and up to Seattle then back to Mexico and over to Hawaii in 2012.

Had a great Thanksgiving with friends and almost ready to head offshore. We bought a new zipper and buckles to repair our main sail, we inserted our new water bladder and we should go from 35 to 50 gallons of stored water for dishes and showers! We still use 9 separate Jerry cans for drinking water so we should be fine. The boat was hauled out and bottom paint applied so the waterline should be much easier to do once we get into warmer waters to try and clean it. I will do a separate entry on the haul out.

Had to add that WI-FI isn't the best at Cruiseport, almost gave up trying to load this then I used my Mexican Phone hotspot and it went through the first time!!
