We're in and running!!!

Yes, today the new Yanmar engine started on the first turn and hummed away with only a couple of minor tightenings!  Lots of soap and scrubbing happened, inside and out.  You could be snow blinded by the results!  The new anchor line was marked and installed.  The new cowel (brass air vent that cost a fortune) fits and looks quite impressive up there on the bow.  Gosling got a new tow line today.  Tomorrow I load and store all our stuff in the cabin.  Bill has to face getting the !!! outboard going and various other must do's.  The weather has been beautiful here - mid 70's and sunny.  Our hotel has turned out to be very nice - free breakfast and laundry (which we are using tonight). 
Love, B & B
