Xmas 2012 Trip Wrap Up

Ooohh, shiny!
Progress was obtained on several projects this week.  First was re-installing of the galley faucet with new parts.  Yeah, water.  Boo, dishes to scrub!
Installation of the modified cabinet for the Fusion Stereo.
Removal of old GPS and installation of starboard panel to cover the gaping hole in the instrument panel.  Looks good.
New projects were started as well this week - some of these are in the early conception stage.  Some of these projects are necessary MUST DOs. Others are WANT TO projects.  We also have a few new WANT TO projects from meeting other cruisers and seeing how they have their boats set up.  This trip we were able to meet fellow Caliber 40 LRC owners Fred and Debbie on s/v Early Out.  They have done a couple of really kewl modifications for more storage on their boat.  Debbie also made wonderful cushion covers - which I have as a WANT TO project from the last visit to s/v Honey Ryder.  We raced back from their boat and begin immediately measuring to figure out how to incorporate some of their modifications into s/v Honey Ryder.  That is part of the fun and benefit of having our boat in Brunswick and meeting other cruisers - the wealth of information we gain from knowledgeable cruisers each trip is immense!  Big plus in SO many ways!!
Treasure hunting boat....seriously!
We also continued exploring the area.  We popped by Golden Isles Marina just to check it out.  There were some strange boats in that marina.  
It was a terrific week but all to soon it was time to pack up the car, bundle up (burrrrrr) and head northwest towards home.
