Getting Chanty on the truck

You can see where I did my best to scrub a few weeks ago.  

Now cleaned

Getting settled in the truck

The day went pretty good.  I left Marina Jack around 8am, arrived at the haul out marina around 10am during high tide, stripped and secured all last things on Chanty.  The crew hauled out the boat and power sprayed the hull.  I chipped away at a few unwanted growth that the sprayer couldn't get.  The trucker arrived soon after and after a few clarifications of some major miscommunication between trucker and marina manager about equipment, everything went relatively well.  I even made it to work just in time. 

I am now in Tallahassee on my way to "The Golden State."  The boat will be put in LA on Monday.  There will be just enough time for me to get there at a safe speed to meet the trucker in LA to inspect the boat before launch.  

On to the next adventure!!!!
