Weekend Plans

What's up for the weekend? Little cloudy and NE winds, so a good weekend to work. Not that there is a ever a good weekend to work.

So what's up for the weekend?

I hear you on the weather, Wayne. I am the shore side equation for weather input for my brother and nephew who are delivering a Gunboat 66 from St Martin to Portland Me.... Lost contact with them for over an hour on the tracker this morning... But they popped back up and are picking up speed. Hope to make the call this evening whether they go to Portland or put into Marblehead. Seas on their course are supposed to build to 7-10' around 0300, which is when the NE starts to build here on shore. They need to start making some 12-16 kt markers if they want to get there ahead of this system. Nephew is captain. I am sure that he is already tired of his father's input by now.... This is the ride;

Other than that, I am pulling boat out of its winter spot and getting the commissioning work underway. Going to be in the water before Memorial day this year!

Kitchen cabinet shopping in the morning and maybe wet a line at sun down. Cooking a mothers day brunch for my wife, mom, and mother in law Sunday morning.

They pulled into Portland harbor around 0700. Texted with them around 0600 and they reported the past three hours had been "a bit bumpy" as they were triple reefed with no headsail and doing 12 plus knots 40 degrees to the wind. And then only had one engine when it came time to dock.... after 1800 miles.

Now for the Derby, the Kentucky Derby! We have drawn horses and texted them out to participants. Having a half virtual party as some are or had been sick earlier this week. Serving bourbon pulled pork sliders with coleslaw!
