I did manage to finish waterproofing the dodger, then set up the deck shade (this boat came with some pretty awesome accessories) and started on it. I got almost finished, then had one too many rum drinks and decided to call it a night. We had a delicious dinner of chips, dip and rum, then crawled into our cozy, yet still not-cut-to-fit bed.
Chips, dip, rum drink, and a sunset over the sewing machine |
1 - ran out of water proofing stuff almost immediately. Had to table that project until I can get to West Marine - the only place in Savannah that seems to sell the stuff.
2 - yeah - we took a nap instead of measuring/cutting/covering that cozy new bed foam.
3 - managed to get so far as moving the sewing machine from the cockpit to our storage cabin.
A very productive weekend. I can't imagine what our lives would be like right now if we'd bought a project boat. We're struggling to stay awake long enough each afternoon just to perform basic maintenance/decorating/cleaning etc. It's nice though - to know that the boat is completely functional without us doing a lick of work. And no, we didn't go for a sail - in fact we never even started the engine.
Who needs to leave the dock when this is your view every day? |
Hey you, I remember how you liked rocking in the rocking chair, I would be that the rocking of the boat is puttin you to sleep......or it could be all that work. Sounds like ya'll had a WONDERFUL weekend. The pics are GREAT, lovin this. Arnie is really looking forward to getting his computer setup again and keeping up with ya'll too.
ReplyDeleteI still love my rocking chair! It's one of the few things I really want on the boat, but won't be able to take :(
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to hearing from Arnie!
