Very cold and windy today. I'm sick of cold.I discovered that my flares were expired and I needed a new fire extinguisher too, so I made the 80 mile round trip to Savannah and got everything we needed.
Installed the new registration numbers...
Installed the fire extinguisher too. While I was at Boaters World, they were having a 50% off on Igloo coolers and seat cushions, so I bought a 98 quart cooler and cushion. Needed a fish cooler and somewhere to sit until I decide what to do about a leaning post. A few measurements determined that the same cooler cushion would be a perfect fit for the front console seat, and I got one for it too
Now Mrs Cracker will be happy.
The Fire Ext. worked out good there, it's completely protected by the T-top legs. I like to have it within reach of the helm and if you keep it visable it helps to keep the USCG from pulling you over and asking to see it
Mrs. Crackers seat cushion...
And we sorted and loaded fenders, dock lines, anchors and rodes and chain, tow line, stowed life jackets in the T-bag (I hate that name
) Packed nav and safety gear, put together a tool box, rounded up 11 drain plugs, and did everything else to make her shipshape. Even got Cape Man's beer and Toms rum packed. My ears hurt from the cold 
Only thing left is to hook her up to the truck
Dori wants to be on the maiden voyage, supposed to be warmer and calmer tomorrow, but it doesn't matter, she's going to splash anyway.
Still going to splash her
