What is a boat without a list of chores? After a great day off on Sunday for a road trip in rental car to Knidos, the most important port city in early Turkey, 400BC, we are back to 2015 reality.
Returning that evening, and as some vino was being enjoyed in Moonbeam's cockpit, the sky delivered a colorful show. Look at the top half of the photo, and picture the boat swinging at anchor, alongside a lovely coastline somewhere. Then take in the complete pix, and see it is only imagining: the boat not moving, no gentle wave action, and still on the "hard".
On Monday the mechanics are doing their part, while for the crew on Moonbeam, it is tackling the "to do" list ...
With the genoa down, we installed the new sheets, which traveled a long journey here ... after Nancy purchased them for Ken in the U.S., and Jim carried them to the boat in Bali, and hence to Marmaris. Dishes from the galley have to be carried down the ladder and washed at a yard spigot, no draining water down the galley sink onto the marina grounds. Anchor chain markings have faded ... although easy to remark, first the entire 300' of chain must be lowered to the ground, measured markings made and then spray painted. Plus, plus plus, more items. Not to bore the reader with all the details.
