new update: we have launched

Post by antlr-king »

We have finally launched. It has been 9 months in dry dock. Alot of hard work since early this year when we really kicked it in gear and got started on the repower and the refinish. There are still some things needed to be done but atleast we are in the water again.
You can see pictures and a little more detail of what all has been done to her in my blog. Thanks to everyone for all answers to all my questions.
