I mentioned a few weeks ago that I had
some boating chores to handle... Stuff that needs to be finished before I depart south to the Keys. I need New Sails, a bottom paint job, and new house batteries. Oh, and yesterday I took my two outboard motors to a guy for having them serviced. I figured some non-boater types might be interested in what all this stuff costs. Are you curious?
