Nautical Trip
Will be taking to the waterways again today.
Dockie and Ann need to take their big boat, Eagle’s Nest, from Lake Toho to Melbourne in order to get new canvas made.
After the grand project of creating a hard top for their 32’ Carver, it is necessary to get new vinyl and canvas made-to-order. Their canvas shop of past experience is out of Melbourne but the boat must be docked there for the custom fitting.
We, Charlie and I, are going with them in their boat, towing another small ‘tender’ for emergency use. It is approximately 250 water miles so will probably make the trip in 3 days staying at various marina’s along the way.
This is a good time of year for water travel.....if we decide to ‘swing on the hook’ it is cool enough without air conditioning....yet they do have a generator which is truly sufficient for air conditioning if needed.
So I will write upon my return and let you know what great adventures we encounter along the way.
Anchors away, mate!
