As the top says, we like to sail, travel and eat. Most of this blog is written with my tongue firmly planted in my cheek. Beware that I might get a bit salty with the language at times, but it's all in good fun.
And despite what you may read, we are a very happily married couple.because we can laugh at ourselves.
Laugh. Love. Eat. Sail. Enjoy.

Arrival in Key Largo

The boat arrived in Key Largo this morning, Tim was down there to greet her.  I think the only damage was that she needed a stern rail seat rewelded.  The Hunters have an arch over the cockpit that has to be removed for truck transport, and evidently the frame by the sternrail seats lost it's support and weren't reinforced.

All in all, she survived the trip well.  Most happy.

However, there's always some entertainment in a boat yard, it's a requirement.

Evidently, they had to wait for a bit to get the boat pulled off the truck, first they had to pull a boat from the water (more on that later).  Tim was having a bit of a language barrier with the boat yard staff, I see Rosetta  Stone in that boy's future.

Of course, the mental image of him going Esa es me barco! a la Forrest Gump was entertaining me immensely.

So, wait....wait....more waiting....and then the canteen truck pulls up and it's siesta time!  Cafe cubano and tortas for all!

At which point Tim says WTF?

So, siesta time wraps up and they get the one boat out of the water and HemiD pulled off the truck.  Now Tim can really start playing!

The Hemisphere Dancer is back to her home port.
