Marathon 4
Working on the boat and enjoying the harborThe last few days we have spent working on the deck. Sam and I are sanding and varnishing and cleaning up the deck. So far it's going very well. We are using epiphanes with a 3:1 dilution for the first coat.
Life in the harbor here is really nice. We are meeting a lot of wonderful cruisors. The boat behind us is named Grace O'Malley. (and we thought we were being original) There is a tremendous variety of people here. Many serious sailors who have been and done interesting things. There are folks from all walks of life. Rich and Poor, Sailors and houseboaters, locals and foreigners, young, old, republican and democrats, Musicians and vetrans. It's very difficult to remember everyone. There are about 350 boats in the harbor and not a theif in sight. The boaters police them selves and everyone seems to get along just fine. We played corn hole today and lost 3 times but it was a lot of fun! Thursday is Jamm session and card playing, Friday is Happy Hour pot luck, Saturday is a swap meet and I've been given 2 solar panels and a charge controller
