Preparation:

We start cleaning and loading around first part of April. Marking chain rode, cleaning lines fixing stuff. We also travel to Ilwaco and pull ASD and put her on the hard for a week or so. Wash, wax and have the gel-coat dude come out and fix impact zones. I hope we will have fun. Start looking for weather windows end of April.

Having issues uploading pics. Will get some posted later

Environment Canada will issue an advisory when the blustery hot air rolls in from the south.

We compounded the bow deck and then waxed on waxed off the rest of the whole boat this winter. Lots of fun…
