Working on the Boat

2/18/2015 - We were pleasantly surprised when we looked Wiz over.  Last year, it had been nearly 2 years on the hard and was a complete mess, I still believe there was an osprey living in the rigging.  This year after 10 months it was in really good shape.  The batteries were still at 12.4V which was encouraging.  After a bit of unpacking we went to the hotel where we would stay until Wiz was put in the water.  We spent the next 3 days working on Wiz 8-5 and then crashing in the hotel.  I tore down the folding prop, re-greased and changed the pitch up 2 degrees.  We did maintenance on the throughhulls, and I spent one full day on scaffolding buffing the topsides. 

At the right is a picture from the hotel.  Not from our room mind you, we were in the cheap section overlooking the street.  This was taken from the end of the hallway.  It overlooks Marina San Carlos and the Bahia (bay) beyond.  We hope to be anchored in the Bahia in a few days.
