Swimplatform lv

Good morning to all,
Sorry for no post these last few days, but I have been so busy that at the end of the day I come in take my shower, call my Shirley and then go to bed. So that is why there has been no new post.

Another beautiful sun rise

What a sun rise. This is almost an everyday thing here. This is a shot out across gulf. That makes for a great day when you wake up to something this pretty. The only thing that is missing are the birds a singing. Most of the birds here or Sea Gulls and Pelicans.

Not a ripple on the water

Flag Pole

 Well the flag pole is up and in place. I have the anchor light, running light, two spot lights, and the VHF antenna mounted on it. Then the flags will be next. We will fly a flag from each state we stop end.

Transom painted

 Well the swim platform is and transom or finished. The transom has three coats of anti fouling paint on it at $220.00 dollars a gallon. But with the paint, it's like the Fram commercial pay me now or pay me later. The cheaper bottom will wash off and then it's time for a bottom job at a lot more then $200.00 dollars, more like a thousand dollars. So that's why I chose the better paint.

I also got one gusset built and installed in it's place, just three more to go and then fiber glassed in place. So that is about it for this post.

Have a great day,
Harold
