He's gonna do Key West Race week, whenever that is...in the mean time some
friends will be using the boat. I'm glad it's gone, he went nuts detailing
it! We have 8 more 105 keels in...I'm getting good finding the keel/sump
join and chiseling off the tape. Quite a thud when 3200 pounds drop!

PS: the lights came on today!

Don't know...that's part of the cruising adventure! They're still working
tonight tho...I don't think it 's the wireing buried in the beams, I really
think it's a drip. F---ing boat leaks worse than the Tahiti!
Well...different, at any rate. At least with the Tahiti I knew where the
water was coming from. Sort of.
