Boat Work

Well life is humming by and the boat hasn’t been sailed nearly as much as I have wanted to. Between work, major house renovations(we completely remodeled our kitchen), kids, kids school, kids after school activities blah blah blah it’s been a little difficult finding time to get to the boat.

The move to Richmond has helped immensely. I often race to the boat during my hour lunch break and I get to spend a solid 30 minutes mucking around with whatever the project is. So far the boat has mostly needed some good old routine maintenance and a lot of cleaning. One major expense though was the bottom paint job. Ultimately had the paint taken all the way off and the boat yard applied 2 coats of epoxy barrier and then paint.
On the sailing end of things I finally made it outside the Golden Gate. It was awesome. The boat felt like it was at home, racing along through the ocean. My thoughts drift to the future, and I see the horizon filled with only sky and water.
