We all got up fairly early this morning had a breakfast sandwich at the local café and started to work on the boat.  We got a lot done, the projects are just too numerous to mention all of them with a lot of little details included.  Jeff and I manufactured a new bow for the dodger and got the dodger installed, it will be great with the southern sun.  A couple of the big projects we got done are: Jeff tuned the rig and Rich installed the new chart plotter and entered the course for tomorrow.  We start sailing for new Bern in the a.m.  Rain is predicted however we will sail anyway and it will be great.   I have looked forward and dreamed about this for years.  I have my friends and my wife Sue to thank for being able to make the dream come true.
