Boat Maintenance and Cat Slings

We are finally ready! We spent more time at the Black Dog today getting her ready to go, and successfully completed our punch down list. Most notably completing the electronic work to get the chart plotter fully operational. We also got gasoline for the generator and took on freshwater.



Unfortunately Matt will not be joining us tomorrow, but we hope he will be recovered enough from his bum tooth (been there and it is not fun) to join us for a day sail when we get to his area.
We did have time for a nice lunch at the East Bay Deli. The food was great, and I am only sorry that I could only pick one sandwich, because there were so many good looking choices. That is definitely a place for a second trip.

We also got in a training session with Cody from Gritbox Fitness. Bob held in there much better than I did, but it was great to get a workout in. Cody seems to be a top notch trainer who knows how much you can take and brings you right to there.

We finished off the day with dinner and a sewing project. Sullivan the Cat has been having some issues with his back legs, so Bob and I sewed a sling for Ronda to help him walk around.


Tomorrow promises to be a good day. We will set off early to make the first Folly Bridge opening, and then head for ports south.
