Hope I can read a chart better than a calendar. Our "D-Day" was Tuesday 24 Apr vice 21 Apr as noted in the previous post.
Yesterday I put the Hookah rig together for the first time and inspected the boat under water. The rig worked perfectly and will be a great asset along the way. My total cost was about $150 thanks to Ebay. Commercial versions are over 1k.
The bottom was fine but there was 1/2" of barnacles on the prop. No wonder the boat felt sluggish Wed when we ran over to Destin to top off our diesel tanks.
We now hope to be underway Wed 25 Apr headed 8hrs to Panama City and an over night visit with our friends the Gano's.
The predeparture checklist is now relatively short and seemingly under control.
