Been of the water a couple of days now and finally got a tentative schedule for the work we want completed.

The plan to start work on Monday 12/14... welder came by and took a look at the area we need repaired and said he would start Monday weather permitting... was also told they would start on the bottom paint... they plan to complete by the 19th... and of course add the clause... "weather permitting".

All this info came on Friday the 11th... with the boat yard being closed on the weekend we decided lets go get our car in Connecticut... we rented a car and we were off to Connecticut at 1700.
