Once the painting of the bottom, the antifouling, was completed, it was time to ask the travel lift to come. The travel lift carries the boat to the water, but before we go in the water, we needed the lift to pick Abracadabra up. The places where the boat was being held up, the bottom of the keel and the where the supports met the hull, those places needed to be painted also. We slapped a few quick coats on before going in the water.
When you see Philip in the background, it makes the boat seem pretty huge!
The fascinating tale of travel and adventure told through the eyes of Anne and Anneleize. From Portugal to Morocco, France to the Caribbean, the USA to the Cape Verde, we travel and relate to you as best we can. We hope you enjoy.
