Giddy with success as we take Me Voy to her new marina. It feels momentous, coz it signals that the hard core restoration work is over! No more tornado like clouds of dust and 5 gal buckets of epoxy for this girl. At least we hope! The buzz around the marina is that we are moving, but just to put those rumors to bed, we are staying put aboard Tara for the winter, and will move aboard Me Voy in the Spring. For now there is still upholstery to finish and other fun things like cushions and curtains to make.
Chopper enjoyed the new cockpit very much, as he was able to smell and therefore long after the yummies that are that much closer. For the most part though, he wasn't much impressed as we motored for about an hour to our new destination. We, however, were giddy, feeling again like we have just stolen someone else's very nice yacht. The only thing that tempers that feeling, bringing it down to reality, is the fact that both of us have touched every inch of that boat, sometimes in very uncomfortable positions.

Congratulations ... We're excited for ya'll! What a great feeling to be done with the really hard stuff! The sail cover looks great .. wish I knew how to sew but must admit I don't wanna learn!

I am in complete awe of the work you two have done. It looks like a new boat! I like your cockpit table, we have a similar one but without the 'wings' that flip out. I want wings!
wings are where its at!
you guys inspire me! nice job. :)
Hey Sam, thank you! For some reason that makes me think of something John Lennon said and I think I'll share it here. It went something like this. "My mom told me the most important thing in life is to be happy. Later, at school, my teacher asked me what I want to be when I grow up. I told her I want to be happy. She told me I didn't understand the question. I told her she didn't understand life."
