From Winter Coats to Shorts!

Wow!  What an absolutely gorgeous sunny weekend we had to work on our boat!
Doug finished with the engine, while I started washing the port side of Zingara, she was a dirty girl!
The boat is so high off the ground, I was getting a sore neck stretching with the pole and brush, Doug took over for me and got her looking clean.  We purchased a buffer which brought up the shine beautifully. I took a photo of the port side where it says Legend to show you how shiny Doug got the boat, beautiful!  We have the starboard side left to do next weekend, and we have decided to put one coat of paint on her bottom.....only 3 weeks till launch! Yikes!

The boat yard went from being cold and silent to warm and busy,  with the buzz of buffers going, covers coming off and the laughter and stories from fellow boaters who had come out of hibernation.
It's great to see boating season has begun.....love it!

We enjoyed a great dinner with wine of course, and had an early night of well deserved rest.  The winds were very strong all night, but we were safe all snuggled in. 



Now it's back to the grind....work that is....until next weekend.....I just love working on my boat!
