Today is another day of cleaning the boat, getting all the water out of the bilge and sealing some leaks. We are sealing the swim ladder today and making sure there is no other leaks in boat. Steve and I have crawled around in cramped boat spaces trying to screw bolts on, Steve has longer arms so he won that round. LOL  I am revising the stock room again to make it more accessible to me and am adding a couple small bins for personal items. I had to get rid of a bunch of magazines and books to make sure i had no loose objects to become missiles on the gulf again. 🙂 I have jumped in the bay to cool off and believe me it is cold but refreshing. No sharks got me so i may jump in another day. There are some more dolphins hanging out  in the bay. I think they are keeping an eye on us making sure we dont so anything bad. 🙂 they do seem like ocean guardians. Well back to the trip, we leave Sunday AM out into the gulf to Sarasota going in at Longboat Key. From there we are headed to Venice Beach and then to Ft Myers from there to the Dry Tortugas and back to Miami for the sailboat/boat show. After that to the Keys and Bahamas when weather permits. We are having a wonderful time and enjoying everything about our adventure!
