How much is a 9 ft draft?

A lot, especially when she's out of the water.  Getting ready to have the final paint job done on the keel.



So, the final list of things that were done?
1.  Bottom and keel soda blasted, keel cleaned up and treated, barrier and bottom paint applied.
2. Dings in side of boat fixed and painted (paint doesn't match, oh well) waxed
3. Topsides waxed
4. Generator serviced, engine serviced
5. Fuel filter set up replaced with Filter Boss
6. Power monitor installed
7. Raymarine chart plotters updated and returned for replacement
8. Stereo replaced so chart plotter can act as remote (safety issue)
9. Outside speakers installed
10. Propane valve inside the boat relocated as required
11. Dorades replaced
12. Vents replaced with solar vents with two-way (in/out) control--essential in the tropics
13. Prop serviced
14. Bow thruster serviced
15. Stern thruster installed (talk to the spouse, roll your eyes at him)
16. Pennant for retractable keel replaced and keel fixed to go completely up
17. Had forward hatch repaired for leaks.

..I'm sure there's a lot more things, but I can't remember.

Still to do, overhaul heads and replace nozzles in bathroom sinks so they can act like a proper shower as they should.

Clean, clean, clean, clean.

Replace all of the lights with LEDs.

Eventually we'll get to enjoy this thing!!!!!
