Best Of

I was dreaming of summer boating so I looked at the Facebook page of Dent Island Lodge where we went this summer and saw they posted an aerial photo when we were there. We were on the boat on the right with all the solar panels. 





They also had some drone video as well

Best reuse of a wedding dress I've ever seen!

Rinker Yan / Handyman 342 blast from the past! - Hey guys, having a great visit from our beloved Handy (Steve) who made is way north with his wife in his RV to Nova Scotia Canada for a visit last week. Of course we had to hit the waters of Mahone Bay in my 212 and venture over to the working site of the ongoing treasure hunt on Oak Island. Good ol' Steve sitting in the captains chair until I had to boot him out so we wouldn't run aground out there haha.  For those that know him, we have had a few good conversations about "current affairs" as well
 
Steve says hi to the old gang and we enjoyed playing tour guide with them all last week.

I bought a big orange filter for my waste tank. I don't have good access to the tank, so today I built a bracket to surface mount the filter to the firewall.

Strolling along the waterfront in Halifax, Nova Scotia soaking up a beautiful Fall day, doing some boat watching (and drooling). 

This pair of Fleming motor yachts were particularly noteworthy. Every inch of these vessels sparkled. Both from Florida, possibly traveling together. 

Getting new Teignbridge props from England would have taken 3-4 months, meaning we'd have to winterize here in Detroit and be homeless (boatless) until April.  To shorten a VERY long story, I was able to fit a pair of US-made props, but only by doing some creative engineering.  We're back in the water, and I'll find out tomorrow how they perform.
