Finally – Shakedown cruise after repairs

Last night we stayed at Sucia Island State Park on anchor, and tonight we at at Prevost Harbor on the dock on Stuart Island. Tonight will be night 82 on the boat since we purchased it.

This is our first trip out after new bottom paint, a new generator, freshly detailed and waxed, new canvas on the cockpit. Lots of new things to try out on this trip.

Here we are dropping anchor, photo thanks to JoAnn on the Providence who was anchored right next to us.

We are enjoying the new this year Starlink In-Motion internet. Given that I have not yet reached retirement, I still need to work, and today I was able to engage the autopilot, put Marcia at the helm, and jump on a conference call for most of the duration between Sucia Island and Stuart Island.

Here is the view from the upper deck on the dock at Prevost Harbor.

The new generator is working well, quieter than the last one.

Two more nights then we head home to reprovision for our big trip to Desolation Sound.
