145 Days And Counting! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

SHIP'S LOG:

It is 145 days until the first of May. the reason that this is significant is that ABISHAG has to go into the water by then. I am not quite clear on what will happen if she would not be ready but it would not be a good thing. It never is.

I did NOT receive a phone call from the yard Boss on Friday so I must presume that the winterization went off without a hitch. I am planning to go down early next week to retrieve the outboard, gas cans and anything else from the boat I overlooked in the unloading on Thursday. I can't think of much or anything really that I left behind, but it always pays to take a good look around. You never know what you will find . . . . maybe several Marine Units that I had forgotten about. I doubt it but, you never know. Maybe the Tooth Fairy has a cousin who works that boating industry or something. The complete winterization will run another probable 2 Marine Units, so here's hoping.

MASTER'S PERSONAL LOG:

They have used the "S" word on the weather forecasts several times this week, so perhaps pulling an Edward Smith, he of TITANIC fame, will turn out to be a good thing. After the first of the year, I can get into the serious planning stage for the Spring outfitting. There in little or nothing ABISHAG needs, but there are two or three things I want to change and perhaps continue on with trying to solve the mystery of her electrical system.. It is just a week now and while I am still quite down about the whole thing, I can already feel myself getting reved-up to get started again.It is just too bad that I have to go through the Winter to get to the Spring from the Fall. But who knows, perhaps, with sufficient study, I will be able to begin to make a start on understanding electricity. It is still magic to me!
