Before and after.....

The start of our day yesterday Friday at Shelburne Shipyard....

.....and after Rick and his crew lower the mast of Iemanja to the deck for safe storage till we get to Catskill mid next week. It's interesting that Bette and I do most all of the prep work and tiedown of the mast stepping process while other boats simply watch and let the guys do everything. I think we prefer to be owners that know what's going on. 

Today and tomorrow will be final provisions and yes.....a few more darn projects to try to cross of that magic list.
