08/24/2009 Our Pre-Voyage Haul Out!

Well we hauled out today with the hope of solving an ongoing problem we’ve been having with a dripping stern tube. And our good friend “Murphy” (as in Murphy’s Law) showed up to give us a hand. As we were backing into the lift dock, Capt. Greg lost our reverse gear in the transmision. So what we were hoping to take a few hours will now be a few days repair. Isn’t that just always how it goes with boats? So we got everything taken apart and we should be able to get it back together in a day or so. I included some photos of Banana Winds Hanging in  the sling, A pic of Perry stuffed down in the engine compartment, and of Capt. Greg coaching Perry from the pilot house companion way.
