Finally…. it’s time to get the boat!!

On June 9th we rented a one-way Dodge Caravan with fold-n-go seating and packed it from top to bottom with supplies to paint the bottom, move aboard and live for two weeks while we get to know her. After we splashed and loaded her up (is she listing to port?!) we returned the Dodge and took the Ironton Ferry back across! Instead of paying BBY to commission our boat we wanted to do some of this work ourselves – how else do you learn?! We erected our Flybridge frame and affixed the canvas panels (not unlike a puzzle without a picture) JUST before the heavy rains came! Spent the first night on the boat at BBY’s dock listening to the rain and feeling dry!
