AS YOU CAN see Moody Blues’ mainsail is huge. We got her hanked on and covered before the squall.

And did it dump! After it blew over we went on an adventure:

Boogie boarding. Here’s Gene, my shot, I was way too scared to take the dinghy in close.

Gene shooting me. (See how close he got!) It was a blast.

Hmmm, cute, cute, cute, cute, cute. (He’s still the one.)

Jumping the photo order here by showing Moody Blues off the jack stands, in the double strapped travel lift heading for the water. This was on Friday, the 20th of November.


The travel lift driver. Guy directing the travel lift driver.

The travel lift’s straps are very heavy and are held together by big pins.

Adjusting the straps to the travel lift. See how they use plastic over the straps to protect the new $325 USD a gallon bottom paint?

Cardboard from the jack stands ended up sticking to the new bottom paint.

This guy liked to ham it up. He was fun. This guy kept his eye on everything.

Apparently the new bottom paint wasn’t totally dry. It was a bit of an ordeal to get the cardboard off.

Moody Blues about to Splash!, as the saying goes down here in Prickly Bay, Grenada.

Long Shot of Moody Blues in water tied up. Gene, are we taking on water? Nope!

Ahhhhh, in the water, hull cooling down and tradewind gusts sweeping the decks.
