Spring Boat Prep: 2014

Point Bay Marina:  Charlotte, Vermont.  April 26-27, 2014  



Marc-  It is that time of year again.  It has been a long winter in New England with the ice finally  leaving the Lake in late April.  I have several projects this Spring for the boat.  An unwanted plumbing fix to replace a cracked pump-out was first and foremost.  Second was the installation of a second fuel tank to extend our motoring range. Third is replacement of some of the cabin sole.  Fourth is completion of an electrical upgrade begun last year.  The first three items are nearly completed.  The first two required a total re-make of the v-berth woodwork.  The electrical is tough with finding routes for the new wiring.  Finally we have to do the regular maintenance items.  Sara and Stephanie have volunteered once again to strip and repaint the bottom. The cover will be coming off soon.  We plan to be on the mooring by June 1.
