Voyage 2020: Chapter 2

7 Jun 2020, Work and Rest Time at Shipwright, 38 46.506 N/ 076 33.822 W

The crew's job is to fix the stuff that they broke during our one and only trip so far this year. We contacted DMI to get on their schedule to repair the mast head unit. Steve said 'no problem' and kind chuckled when we told him what we did to it. We called East Coast Rigging to remove the mangled unit and straighten the VHF antenna and replace the Windex. I think they chuckled also. Then we called Phipps Boat Works to see if they could fix our crunched bow roller. We got another 'no problem'. Soon, we will have a whole boat again

We spent another week on the boat cleaning and messing about. We continued to monitor the deck work to repair the damage from the trash that came up with our anchor at Hospital Point. Also, work continues with our work to clean up the teak deck. We took a bit of time off to just 'smell the roses', and all of the other flowers at this wonderful marina. We finally left for Wilmington on 14 June.

15 Jun 2020, New Adventures Brewing, 34 06.348 N/ 077 55.902 W

As we get older, we will move a few of Jule's adventures to our new RV, a 2018 Tiffin 25 Wayfarer. We have a mini voyage planned for July up to New England with stops in Plymouth MA, Gloucester MA, and Eastport ME. We are trying to equip the RV with the necessary 'stuff' for cruising. We want to add power meters for the AC and DC systems, activate the Sirius radio, and stock up with provisions. Unfortunately, none of this will happen any time soon.
