    It’s always good to sit back and reflect before you start any project. I guess now you need a list and timeline for each project to ensure you get it all done in time 😊

      Thanks, my friend.
      Just got the fuel tank hoses replaced yesterday, and now going after the engine.
      But in the mornings I am going through the charts, and making myself ready.
      Thanks for following!

    "It's much worse than I thought"! lol. The familiar feeling of all shade tree mechanics and do-it-yerselfers! I'm praying for yer Gal and her Residency issues. Ya know for a moment when you said Boston, I thought for a microsecond that you were gonna say Scotland also! Smile. p.s. I concur with yer thought on Books and charts. One day the Satcom and batteries will be no more! I believe you said in the past that you could use a Sextant. Good Man!

      Oh, I'd love to sail the waters of Scotland and Ireland. That of course was the original plan pre-Covid.
      In 2020 we had the boat and my gal had her 2-year visa to the UK...but the Covid "done us in".
      Going after the engine next! I've still got a fuel injection pump held together with JB Weld!

    Boston sounds like a great trip

      I've never sailed up there at all. It'd be quite a trip, for sure. And then I have to get back!
