An early morning. It takes time to go from sound asleep to wide awake...


Wild Blue went in for her bottom job this morning. I was the second one in the boatyard at opening time, right behind the assistant manager...

After the workers checked in and got a cup of coffee, they went right to work on getting her off the trailer...

Lifting the stern with the forklift to get access for the straps for the travel lift...

Up she goes...

Rolling to her place in the yard where they will work on her...

They set timbers under the boat before the jackstands. I asked if they would be playing Jenga under my boat, referring to the timber stack under there... pretty sure they didn't get the joke...

Setting on the stands...

Wild Blue looks pretty tiny sitting in this lineup...

I had to chuckle when one of the workers who doesn't speak much English ran his hand over the blue stripe on the hull: "Nice finish."
Well, at least someone noticed.
