Nearly there?

It's been a good week for Armida and a lot has been done. She now has new standpipes (through hull pipes) all around, a new waste water tank and toilet, a new gas line (almost), new vinyl wall lining around the windows in the bedroom, shower and bathroom and a new coat of antifouling paint on her entire bottom, thanks mainly to Terry. Notice the port name, Terherne is gradually disappearing, soon to say Morro Bay, CA. That will be weird.
We are "hoping" that she will get out of the shed on Tuesday so we can wash and wax the hull and get the inside steam cleaned, and then into the water on Wednesday. There are still several smaller things to be done and the engine needs to be serviced but we hope to be living on board this week and setting off sometime next week. Emphasis on "hoping". We will probably take her into Sneek where we can moor right in the middle of town and do our shopping for anything we have forgotten. But first we will go to some smaller out of the way places where we can practice running into things with no one watching. The weather has turned lousy this week which is OK while we are in the shed but hopefully it will be better next week.

Getting closer, getting excited.
