Not much done as the trip to Lake Erie ate up some free days and a weekend.

And I'm quickly exhausting the limit on boat work days.  Doesn't matter, I'm on the water and it's very satisfying to apply paint and try out systems.  I wanted to get the solar panel wired in, but puffs on the creek got to almost 40 (mph) and I didn't think it too wise to start farting around witn a big flat panel on deck. 

So that got scuttled.

But I was able to hook the otto up and while the boat was getting tossed around in the slip watch and listen to it make minor corrections to keep us on course (even though we weren't really going anywhere).

One day it'll be warm and relatively calm. Until then, a luta continua...
