Big Boat Work Day

The Canvas Crew from North Canvas came out and measured for my new Full Enclosure.  First they measure and sow the heavy canvas top. (a Bimini)  Once the Bimini is attached they use lightweight plastic to stretch out for measuring and creating a pattern for windshield and complete "sun room" around the cockpit.  It will be warm and dry all winter.  
Thanks Tom and Ben.  



Eric and Davy, from Y.E.S. (Yacht Equipment Service) came out to replace my old Generator. Imagine a ship in a bottle situation.  We have to take it apart to get it out, so we can re-build the new one in it's place.  (now think 35 year old oil, gunk, grease, and slime dripping as you go.  Are you imagining it weighs 377 pounds?  So i got to help some with the 'heavy lifting.'  We got it apart, out and off the boat without injuries.  Great job Eric and Dave.
