Well as summer gets closer it's time to get the boat in "ship shape"

We started this month replacing the old Bushwacker name with a new one. We took a little damage to
the name on some of our trips. (Must have been when someone else was at the wheel)
I did the hard work of getting the old name off, it took me about 7 hours total.

 

We used Chris Cox from Chris Cox signs to do the honors.
Chris and his wife Ginger are boaties in the "other" marina just down from us.

 

The final job.    AWESOME!     Thanks Chris and Ginger.... Oh, and here is their link...

And no job would be complete without one of  Emmitt's summer wax jobs.
 Need help call Emmett's Boat Works  (510) 635-1713

Next I needed to fix those noisy halyards. I found this cool halyard tamer at the boat show and installed it.
I can't remember who made it but I'll link it if I find out.

 

Great idea for keeping those lines off the mast. The lazy jacks mount to the back and spinnaker halyards in the front.

Sure love that new galley sink we installed a few months ago. We do good work!
