Step 4: Work, Work, Work
There was a long list of things to do. The yard got part of the list, and I got the rest. There are just some things I cannot do, like lift a 55-foot mast onto the boat, much as I try. Before they did anything, I gave her a bath. She was very dirty, covered in road grime.
Then the work began in earnest. I decided to stay on the boat in the yard because the commute back to San Mateo was grueling. Good thing because it meant for more hours to work. The yard had a bright yellow light over the boat making early morning and evening work possible.
PropSpeed treatment on the propeller - nothing sticks to this stuff!

Rigging the mast shrouds, halyards, wind instruments, radar and VHF radio antenna
