Entry #31: To view my blog’s first entry scroll down to ‘Entry # 1’. Sorry for the inconvenience, I will eventually figure out how to reverse entry order.

Everything went well this morning. Never Too Late was launched successfully. Yanmar diesel started without hesitation from a long winter. Automatic bilge pump worked flawlessly. It took a few trials and errors but as you can see from the picture above, I re-installed both the dodger and bimini.
Thursday I will attempt to wire my auto-pilot and watchman electronics. (Joey, keep your fingers crossed that I can do it myself.) Time and weather permitting, I will also initiate testing the function of the new Garmin depth transducer and GPS chart plotter.
Friday I plan to load the North Sails and work the top deck including improving hatch water tightness. With any luck I may be ready for a brief trial sail over the weekend.
