While Lydia was visiting her mother, I took a couple of days to sort
through the thousand or so pix I've taken since the last sorting and
processing, have the bulk of them processed, and uploaded into my
gallery.

The refit proceeds; we'll start putting on the underwater portion of
the hull's final fairing level and longboarding (sanding with a
4.5"x48" flexible board, two people) that tomorrow.

LOL! More blisters than bottom!!!! That Flying Pig boat sure wasn't
even worth all the effort, Skippy!!! You've ended up putting lots of
hours of work and lots of layers of materials on a foundation of MUSH.
Shoulda unloaded that boat on some unsuspecting soul and got yourself
one without blisters with the proceeds - or at least put a good down
payment on it. Something like a 38' Cabo Rico.

It's a crying shame to spend so much time, energy and dollars on an old
POS Morgan. It was never intended to be a real cruising boat in the
first place. It was sold primarily as a dock object to entertain guests.
