I spoke to Tony Mantini  the other day, and he commented that we were in rain gear in many of our pictures on the blog. I hadn't thought of that, but it is true. We have had a lot of rain.  Here is something Brenda read in the local Syracuse paper that says it all about the weather:

 

Here are a couple of pictures of the Paint Booth at Winter Harbor Marina. It is 80 ft deep, 20 ft wide, and 40 ft high.

 

 There is a beautifully restored 44 foot 1987 Viking on our dock that was painted and refinished by Winter Harbor and it looks like a new boat.

 

 

We also spotted a 40 Mainship in the boat yard, with a hailing port of Auckland, New Zealand, that has a Sidepower Stern Thruster installed.

 

 

Winter Harbor is a distributor of Nuteak. Which is a composite material that looks like teak. They had a display in the office, and to make a long story short: here are our new Nuteak steps leading up to the fly bridge. The tape will come off in the morning and the edges will be cleaned up.

 

 

We were surprised to get a call from Dave Taylor, who was in the area to pick up a new boat. Dave and a friend stopped by our Marina briefly to say hello.

We also heard from Bob and Penny Smith, who plan to drive up to Brewerton and join us for lunch tomorrow.
