Time fly when you are working all the time...


I can't believe it.

I thought that last week I wrote the last blog, but it has been almost three weeks.
Many things have taken place.
First - we have both engines completed, working  and functioning. Now we just need the sails....
Those, hopefully, should be her a week from today.




We have the new oven installed ad working, the new batteries are in, a new solar panel and a new controller in place,



We have new covers to the hatches, we have all our jerrycans and spare gas tank on the boat, we sold our old dinghy, operated the water maker (still on this to talk and learn), installed new shower heads, and finally entertain guests and friend for dinners, dinghy ride, etc. etc.

So as you can see, we are moving on a very fast pace.
We hope to complete all the prep work in the 3 weeks remaining.
Tomorrow morning we plan to take our boat for the first run (engines only) to the....... yard.
We need to install the new, and correct anchor roller and replace a through bolt (that yes, it was suppose to be replaced when the boat was in the yard). We should be back in our slip tomorrow afternoon.

We also had an interesting learning experience on what does it take to fill an Oxygen tank (or not to fill...) - I will have to take a course in administrating Oxygen, and that means that first I will have to take an advance First Aid course...

We also had an opportunity to go out sailing twice with our friends on their boat. We saw dolphins, manatees, and other sea life. It was great.

All in all - great few weeks, of hard work and great progress.
