Greetings and salutations to all. Much has happened since I last posted of my adventures, and much more will happen as chapter two progresses.
I left LOTTIE, at Jarrett Bay Boat Works in NC, on the hard and scheduled for bottom paint, and possible new electronics. Over the intervening weeks, negotiations with the electronics installer fell through so I have the same electronics as last time. As far as I know Jarrett has done the bottom paint but I will not know until Monday at the earliest, as I have been delayed at work due to the weather. The choppers don't fly in the fog! Tomorrow should be better and flights should resume. Then the long drive from the New Orleans area to NC.
Go forward plan:
Get back to the car and high tail it to NC, looks like rain and bad driving weather. Once in NC evaluate the boat for any freeze damage, and if necessary repair and replace what has broken.....I drained every thing, and Jarrett Bay put heaters in her, so damage should be minimal, or if I am really lucky non existent!
So excited to be doing work ups for the next leg!
Hope to see y'all out there!
