Finally! Good news! The ice is out in the bay, but....some ice still lingers in the marina area. Generally speaking, May 1 is the earliest the marina will splash boats and it looks like we're going to be scheduled for the second weekend of May. So close, yet so far.
First order of business will be removal of the bright blue shrink wrap. Captain Matt is usually then responsible for the outside cleaning and polishing of the boat (which sometimes includes hiring the polishing out to a third party - it's just easier that way). I get the inside, which means Clorox wipes and loads of teak oil. It sort of results in a glue-sniffing phenomenon (not that I would know what sniffing glue entails), without actually looking like you're doing anything inappropriate. HA!
Oh, to start finally making plans! Apostle Islands, look out....here comes the Blue Ayes Crew!
