Hi Folks,

Yesterday was pretty frustrating for Greg, Tom & Billy. They worked hard all morning getting things ready and finally got all three engines fired up about 2:45pm.

Shortly thereafter the port engine died due to air in the fuel. We finally left the dock at 6:15pm and ran up and down San Diego bay for about an hour and 15 minutes.

Needless to say it was a wonderful feeling to be able to go forward and backwards. The boat performed well but I am not getting excited yet. The next test run will be conducted with all three wells, the bait tank and water tanks full. This run will be the biggest indicator of how successful this project has been.

Meanwhile, other projects continue; the painting project is still going strong, Aaron dismantled the fuel centrifuge and it is being overhauled, Cole is putting chafing gear on all fuel lines, Anthony is sanding and varnishing the galley entry doors and painters are prepping the deck.

Coast Guard top side inspection is Friday. Getting through the inspection without any hassles is a big hurdle.

We will start laying the new deck next Saturday and Sunday, which signals the end of boat work.

Frank
