Dinner on Catalina 400 MK2. Sea trials tomorrow.
Beautiful documentary with lots of potential.
How long would it take to sail both coasts of the United States in my O’Day 20?
A few weeks back I accompanied Jay to a private, deep water, dock on the Frederica River to install a new fish finder on a small fishing boat. Only problem was, the boat was on a lift, and the owner wasn’t able to trailer it at the time making installation of a new transducer a little awkward. No problem for us! Thanks to a boater friend, we had an 8 ft. inflatable dinghy to use. (The adventures of the newly repaired dinghy is a whole other story for another blog!)
Jay hopped in the dinghy and motored out under the boat, removed the old transducer and installed the new one with little trouble. I think the toughest part was keeping the dinghy in the right position in the river current – I spent a little time on the dinghy with him just holding the boat still!
In the meantime, I took the liberty of snapping a few pics of the work in progress:
Anyone ever worked in a stranger situation?
