Hi Stephen! Just woke up...going to be in the 80's today and tomorrow so going to the boat both days! Went down yesterday and did that first time "shopping" for the boat...yikes...can't fit another thing in the car! By time everything's done it will probably be the second week in May before I ever get out of the slip! Sound's like u need to hook a ride on someone's boat that's already in !! Need coffee....u take care!

Can hardly wait! Going down again today, hope to have name decal made today and put on, then the detailer will put a coat of hard wax on transom. We really need a few 70 degree days here soon. Will be chilly sailing, but will tough it out!!!!! LOL....mittens and long underwear the first week for sure. Is it chilly where you are or just getting boat stuff done?

Stephen, it was great seeing you in Turkey last week. Check out the photo on the mainpage. By the way, guess who sailed into our marina on Sunday? Incognito from San Francisco, who say they remember you from years ago in Med... Small world, eh? :-)

If you haven't run aground, you haven't "REALLY SAILED" Galveston Bay. I'm still getting used to the skinny water down here. I ask "How can you sail in brown water, don't you want to see the bottom?" They tell me "No, I'd rather not know what's on...
