Prep for the Hurricane / TS Sandy

Sandy is nicknamed Frankenstorm because it is an unusual combination of hurricane and winter storm - supposedly.   Well since we got gently "kicked out" of our floating dock deemed unsafe to sustain tropical storm force winds, we had to haul out in a hurry... space on the hard is rare and coveted.  Anchoring out and riding the storm at sea was not an option since we have not replaced yet our heavily rusted chain and anchor.  So Avi managed to bring the boat by himself with one engine to the marina where we are now for the next few days in Solomons.








It did not prevent us to keep at it and work on our to-do list; Steve is a BIG help; here he is down below...working on that port bilge... we are learning a lot; it's very satisfying.
