  • First Night on the Boat

    I called Tower Marine to find out when they were going to put my boat in the water.  They said it was already in but they for got to call me – THANKS!  Anyway I threw a bunch of clothes, gear, electronics and headed out for Saugatuck.  I arrived about 1530 – 1600 hrs.

    I got everything loaded and water put in the tanks and mounted the jib club foot and the boom.  If it is calm tomorrow I may try to put the sails on.  It is supposed to be cold tonight.  I think the heater is up front so I might plug it in.  So far everything works OK that I have tried..

    I am listening to Delilah on the radio.  I started this years ships log am not totally settled in but at least I went to the store to get some breakfast items and some hormel chili for lunch tomorrow. Opps, I forgot to set the barometer – better do this now.  OK, its done – 29.55 and supposed to rain tonight.  There is rain on the radar but it is up north right now.  Time to cruise the net.  BFN.
