Finally got the old girl to sea!


( excuse my grammar / I pads are crap for blogging). It's been raining heavy here for about 3 days and thunder and lightning so it's been interesting! We've got a few leaks on the boat so we ended up putting the winter cover on which is huge! We took it off today as the sun came out and they have forecasted good weather now for about 2 weeks. We are really enjoying Marmaris because we can get all the bits we wanted for the boat, so far, a new boarding platform, folding bikes, rubber dingy, 2 x awnings, cushions, new bed mattresses, bedding, towels, crockery, cutlery, deck cushions, kettle, sauce pans, clothes, tool box, spanners boarding ladder, engine spares, engine service, YEP... Busy. Weve made lots of friends already, an elderly British couple a few boats down have been doing this for 30 years! Both in the mid 80's!!! He's been great for passing me on all those tips you need to know. The family making the boat covers have been very good and invited as around for tea... Another guy cut some mirrors for the heads compartment waves in the morning...  

We are going to take the boat out tomorrow for the first time so watch this space!
