Good Excercise, No Boating

Well the most beautiful weekend just past us and we spent it cleaning Argonaut, since it is not yet in the water.the boat had suffered quite a few scratches coming up from Florida to Kent Island last year (it's a long story worth telling on another day), and some of those seemed as if a new coat of paint would be needed. Not so, after scrubbing hard with a pasty compound, it all came off and it is shining once again, looking as good as new!

The yard is still mostly full with more boats out of the water than in it, so we were not alone while we were busily compounding the hull and shining the chrome all around it. Also, I feel the pain on my muscles which I welcome specially around my almost too flabby arms. Killed two birds with one stone. Or make that three birds because we also saved money doing it ourselves. (Boaters always get ripped off, so get off your lazy A.. and start doing it yourselves. You'll get rewarded three ways too!)
