Vacation over

Hi all,
  We have been in the Mediterranean since May 6.  Heading home today so time to get some check marks on WindWager and back in the water.  I plan to mount my new battery charger and a solar panel.  Then off we go.  The Mediterranean has been awesome!  But looking forward to a local cruise.

Vacation/Anniversary

Hi All,
   This will be short today.  I will not post again till end of May  we are taking a cruise in the Med (not on Wind Wager)  so no work will be done.  But when I am back we will be making some check marks and get Wind Wager back in the water.  What do you think of the Boat name below?  Should I use this on the Boat?

Have a Great Day

Getting a plan together - Trip #1

Retirement is getting close so I start trying to knock out some of the TO DO list on WindWager .

-Install charger
-Install new anchor light
- Add another 110v outlet
- Install new Depth/GPS   -  CHECK MARK
- Add another cabin light  -   CHECK MARK

and so on..  I do love check marks  :)

After a couple of day shackdown cruise around Wrightsville Beach in early June,  I plan to take a 2 week trip doing the Albemarle Loop.

    Should be interesting seeing this area from a water perspective and there are several free docks to spend the nights while enjoying those towns.  In case your interested the web site for the loop is http://www.albemarleloop.com.
   My youngest daughter is planning to join me on this trip and maybe the Admiral and other daughter can join for a weekend.
    However before then I need to rebuild the #3 carb on my Honda 50hp and maybe replace the forestay.  It's raining today so outside work is limited.  More to come and let me know what you would like to see on this blog.  Until then...

Have a Great Day!
