The Keel Is On

Day 23, August 25, 2009

Bill the repair guy re bedded the keel this morning. Yay!!! He put tons of sealant (5200) on the top of the keel, lowered the boat unto the keel, tightened the keel bolts, and cleaned up all the 5200 that squeezed out. Now it has to sit for another 24 hours for the sealant to set.
Paul and I took the opportunity to repair our dinghy seat which Gill broke while we were at Beaver Island. Gill says that I broke it but she was just sitting on it at the time.
It started to rain off and on in the afternoon but we still walked to the local pizza joint for supper. While we were there, we met a Charlevoix Police officer/auctioneer/ blacksmith who demonstrated the use of his Tazer (not on us thank goodness). I have to sign off now because Paul is in bed with his teddy bear and Miss Snow Carnival. More on that in the near future.
