Getting the Boat Ready - Day 1
Whooo-hoooo.. we arrived in Georgetown SC at 9 am today (Monday)... 1550km.... We stopped for a few hours in the middle of the night.... not sure where that was...
The boat was as we expected and we spent the day working our asses off geting her ready to sail home...
Our original plan was to start home on Wednesday, but with all that we are doing to the boat, it may take an extra day to get ready...
The van was AWSOME! ran great and we only spent about $200 on fuel... Shelley went to the local NAPA store to get a new battery for the windlass (the thing that pulls up the anchor) on the boat and had 2 people offer to buy the van! Maybe we will end up with a bidding war....
We quit working on the boat at about 8pm... We are dead tired.... Went for a couple of cervesas and fajitas... Then went to WalMart to buy a TV.
Tomorrow is Shelley and my 8th anniversary... I think we will do something romantic like clean the galley... :).
More later...
