Hoping to splash by July 1st, that is, if it warms up by then!
 
You may have me beat.
If all goes well I may actually paint the bottom either tomorrow or Friday. I'm going out of town for a week so nothing will get done until I return. I plan to pull the cover on or about the 7th and have the yard detail it this year then I will launch. With a little luck maybe the 2nd week of April there about. I'm not feeling I have to rush it will be what it is this year. I'm just not feeling it yet!
 
Yard already bottom painted. My only responsibility this year is to put the zincs on. Trying to gather up the energy to complete this soon.
 
I went to the boat today hoping to paint but the weather didn't allow for it but I did complete the sanding prep. Took more off this years then I have in the past hoping to get a better bond. Maybe tomorrow I will be able to paint I would love to get it done before I leave for a week.
 
Making headway, bottom is painted shrink wrap is off canvas is repaired and installed still needs to be stretched a little.
I'm having the yard detail the boat this year with a little luck they will start tomorrow. I should be able to launch soon but not in a rush. I would like to replace my power cable it's just time I damaged the end and the cable itself is old and stiff making it hard to wind into the Glendining I think a new more flexible cable would work smoother.
I also want to redo the small section of flooring in the galley the wood is curling I will replace with vinyl so it will be water proof.
I hope to be in within a week or two the latest.
 
Friday is the big day!
I have completed everything needed before launch date. I do have a couple of projects I'm in the middle of. To my surprise the flooring in the galley was vinyl that was oddly installed over an actual hardwood floor. I just sanded the floor I plan to stain and varnish over the next few days.
 
Still looking at July 1, if it warms up by then...
 
Let me know when you get in Mike. We may come up river for a fall cruise this year. :)
 
Looks like I will splash on Wednesday, just in time for the hot weather. Already have my haul-out scheduled for Saturday, when it gets cold again.
 
Welcome back, I saw you made it to the dock when I was there yesterday for a bit. BTW what is with the wiring in you air vent?

Everyone is asking me! It's a new antenna wire that I need to run into the salon. I'm getting too old to squeeze in there, so I'm waiting for Thomas to help me.
 
LOL Maybe he can run a few wires for me when he is down.
I just had to crawl in there to replace my battery charger that was fun!
