She Floats!

I went to the marina right after work to check on how things were going with the boat. I showed up and saw the boat wasn't on the stands where I last saw it. I went over towards the travel lift area and saw this.


I am very happy seeing the boat floating. It was nice to see the mast in the air with the standing rigging that I replaced. It was also good to see where she was sitting at the water line.

 
 
I think the yard is still doing some final touches so I didn't want to move it yet. Since they don't work on the weekends, I'll have to check on Monday. Once I can move it from the yard area, I'll stop by to the fuel dock then to the slip.
 
They did a pretty good job on some gelcoat repairs. After a year of ownership, I will soon be able to get out on the water to test things out and enjoy some nice weekends.
