    First weekend of boat work

    This weekend we're going to Blaine to spend our first weekend aboard and the first weekend doing projects. To be honest I don't even know if we'll get her off the dock. Here's the stuff I want to do this weekend:

  • Clean the interior
  • Remove anything we don't like (e.g., lanterns in salon)
  • Possibly clean the bilge
  • Clean the top-sides
  • Do a full inventory of all compartments
  • Remove the name from the hull
  • Remove all paperwork with the old name and bring all paperwork home to be dried and scanned (some of its a little musty)
  • Determine how many locks are needed, I think its 6 (2 Companion Ways, Port, Starboard, Stern lazerettes, Dock box) + Spares
  • Measure all the lines and running rigging in preparation for replacement
  • Check the anchor rode (its rusty on deck) and measure it
  • Go up the masts check the anchor light, check antenna base on mizzen
  • Get detailed photos of areas for future projects: Head replacement, Install holding tank, porthole replacement, etc.
  • Try out the SSB, Pactor Modem, send first position report
