Yesterday was a precursor of autumn with highs only in the 60's. With a forecast of rainy weather for the remainder of the week (which is proving true today), I drove down mid-day, disassembled the boat and floated her on the trailer with Brian's help around 1830 and had her home in G'Bury by 2010 hours. On my next seven off (weather permitting) I hope to move her to the back yard, lift her off the trailer and on to the stands and get set pretty much for the winter. This morning I threw a small tarp on.
I'm still working on the off-season to-do list, and need to decide how much to consider over winter. The keel needs to come off for re-painting and there are a few blister areas on the bottom demanding attention. Time will tell how much more I'm willing to tackle.
Ready for Old Man Winter
