Locked and Loaded!

I'm breathing much more easily this week.  Thanks to Nadil at N.M. Marine Services, our projects are done!  

Travel Berkey and stand
The AIS is working (you can find Trekker on www.marinetraffic.com), Go Free wireless control for the chart plotter is working, solar panels are working, cabin fans are installed, exhaust fans for the fridge and freezer are installed, head hoses replaced, jacklines made, the third reefing line installed and tubular fender boards fabricated.  Doug at Klacko Marine fabricated a handhold and socket for the swim platform which Nadil installed to make coming up the swim ladder and disembarking from the dinghy easier (read more graceful)!  

We also bought a Travel Berkey water purifier and was very fortunate to find, at the last minute, Novatek Welding in Cambridge, Ontario to fabricate a stand to mount it on the galley bulkhead. Thanks Mike!

We have charts and cruising guides, lots of safety equipment and on and on. Everything is checked off on our many lists ... hope we didn't forget to list anything!  

We have most of our clothes aboard and Karen has most of the non-perishable food aboard.  The wine cellar and liquor locker are stocked too!  

Time to get going!
