Day -10: Final Sprint

 

Today marks 10 days before our next great adventure, 'The Great Loop". As we make the final sprint with less than 10 days to go, we are getting the boat buffed and polished this week. These guys spent 3 days last week doing the black hull, and now 3 days in doing the top white part. This was a marathon to get the boat ready the past few months as we did engine work, replaced all the canvas windows, refinished the Teak deck, put in all new electronics and too many other numerous small tasks to count. We have been at Aqua Yacht Marina since June this year to prep for this trip. We purchased the boat in May in Fort Myers and moved the boat here first of June. That in itself was a wonderful trip as we lingered in Destin and Orange beach for some beach time and fun on Crab Island. Should have blogged that trip as well, but we will let that one slide. So onward with the great loop, 10 days and counting down...
