Starting to get serious now!
I have not been working on the boat much lately. Time to get back on it!
Since the boat is on the hard, this is what I use for my land based adventuring. If I could just fit the motorcycle in the boat...

Found another picture of Farley's boat, Happy Adventure. #sailing
Farley Mowatt’s “Boat, Who Would Not Float.”
Winter mode activated! Hardtop installed until warmer days return. The hardtop is so much warmer, dryer and quieter than the soft top! #triumph #tr6 #dailydriven #cars #classiccar #petrolicious #drivetastefully
One more part complete. It was in pretty bad shape. It got enough water in the motor that it rusted enough to dislodge one of the magnets. Innards were rebuilt at the “factory”. When I looked up the info on the maker of the windlass, I was surprised to find they were 30 minutes away from me. When I took it in I got a tour of the machine shop as well…pretty cool, and way cheaper than buying a newer inferior model.... $500
Progress is slow, but still progress
