adjusting the freeboard

Marina and I spent the day looking over the boat in more detail. Yesterday we did sea trials, so that took up much of the time. So we really dug in deep, looking in every nook and cranny, tracing hoses, electric cables, trying to ID everything we could. The learing curve is very steep right now. Some of the systems we need to understand before we bring it home are, engine, DC power production and storage, anchoring gear, fresh water, and propane/stove set up. Its a bit overwhelming right now. In the morning we'll get the boat gear from the storage locker moved to the boat and set up what we can. Busy day.
