Getting ready for our annual pilgrimage to Florida. Revarnishing the toerails. Replacing holding tank pumpout hose. (exhaust hose?) Repairing the knotmeter. Changing the oil filter. Changing the fuel filter. (Dammit, didn't bleed all the air out before starting the engine.) Putting the guide hose back onto the pipe in the centerboard trunk so the centerboard will raise all the way up. Redoing the connections for power and navigation lights for the knotmeter and depthfinder.

Spent a lovely Sunday morning at the Freeport Farewell Bouy as a friend of ours recently passed and his wife was laying a wreath with his ashes in the water there. Tried to sail home but wind too light to run DDW to home so ended up motoring to slip.

Lots of work done, not much remaining and not much remaining time.

Tartan Green with jealousy. (busted my hand so no work on the boat for a few more weeks.)

Hopefully I'll raise some sails on Saturday if the weather cooperates......might still be a bit chilly to anchor out but we'll play that by ear.
