At Last!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

       Just this morning, ABISHAG got towed over to Ferry Slip Marina to be hauled out.  Yes, just today. Three days before Thanksgiving. After a snow storm last week.

     We overcame a sink hole in the Marina lot right where the travel lift had to go.  We overcame a blown clutch on the travel lift transmission. We overcame some seriously lousey weather including a Nor'Easter, a snow storm with 5 inches of  heavy wet snow, winds of 40 mph and just regular rain. All of these delightful scenarios combined to put Eric the Shaman well behind, so far that he still has 30 boats to be hauled after hauling ABISHAG this morning.  But she is ready to be lifted out of the water and snugged down for the winter. That snugging comes next and begins tomorrow. Maybe. It is suppose to rain  like hell. AH, THE JOY OF BOAT OWNERSHIP!
