Shakedown!

Well, we’re here, and it is very enjoyable to row around Snowfish in the Whitehall and admire her sitting in the water.
We’ve been here for two days just doing last minute things like putting on the sails (oh...very ratty looking, must start saving $$$$ for new ones next season). We also did important things, like get a larger flag (??Kurt??). There’s now a swingarm mount for the GPS and the Magma grill rail mount is now the right size. We have lots of ice in the icebox and are hoping it keeps for more than a couple days. The freshwater and diesel tanks are all filled....and we think we’re ready for a little shakedown sail with Irish Ayes to Harbor Island for the night. If all goes well...we’ll be off to Dix to see the Owen clan for a couple days of island fun!
As it turns out, we have a lovely mostly downwind sail to Harbor, and with that nice 3’10” draft, we sneak right up to the head of the harbor and drop anchor. A great day was had by all, for sure!
