Getting Ready to Go to Abaco, Bahamas

John Henry was pulled for a new paint bottom job and the running gear cleaned by Holland Marine. While on the hard, Wink and Wilma did a lot of cleaning. All the portholes had their screens removed, cleaned and replaced along with the stainless ports polished. The rub rail was cleaned and treated with F21 cleaner and protectorant. The alleyways were cleaned and all their trim work painted inside the hatch covers. All the teak and holly floors were cleaned and oiled.

We also went to Sarasota to deal with a few medical appointments. While we were there, Wink’s cousin Rudy came for a visit.
This is the view from our Pent House Condo. Upon closer inspection, you will see that the kayak is being paddled by Wink. Wink also has started a new hobby of making jewelry.
