Such a wonderful cat ... waits for us to come home so he can rub face

Jones looking ever so cute waiting patiently for us to come in

Having fun with some remote control vehicles ... These are much better than when I was a kid ... the big one goes about 50 km/h

Too fast for it's own good ... flipped as it too off to race the cars

Racing Traffic on main street

Donuts on the gravel

Monster truck with 4 wheel independent suspension and 2 motors equals 50 km/h

Dueling RC vehicles ... way too much fun

A wonderful day on the "Ecliptic" trying to fix as much as I could. Pulled out all the cushions to dry in the sun ... there was a lot of water in the boat when it was first looked at. The dockside AC wiring proved to be a challenge in the galley ... 3 wires colored black, red and blue ... not quite the standard black, white and green. The GFI breaker was intermittent as a result of all the wires being very loose. Took me a couple of tries to get the right wires in the right place, but now we have real AC in the galley. After that I tried to plug the crack in hull with limited success. It seems to have slowed a bit, but still leaks. Need to try the underwater bonding capabilities next to avoid the problems with the water still coming in while it is setting. Pulled out the jib and it looks wonderful ... the mainsail has a few problems since it would only go part way up ... need to get some silicone lubricant to see if I can free it up. All in all it was a beautiful day on the boat.

Buccaneer 295 mainsail ... sporting the number 29549

Well thats about as far as the mainsail goes up the mast ... need to put some silicone grease to get it working properly.

Ferry day going into town to get parts for the boat ... wonderful and blustery on the trip over to Horseshoe Bay ... good thing we weren't out on the little boat.

Looking up Howe Sound

A lot of jugging and maneuvering of cars to squeeze me on the ferry.
