Thanks everybody! The yard is doing a great job and we are anxiously awaiting completion.

We are having it shipped to the Seattle area, probably in March. We considered taking it from the yard directly but for quite a few reasons, not the least of which being that I'm still working and will be for some time, we decided that having it shipped here made the most sense.

The mast in the background is for a 382, they haven't put mine on yet.

I will go to the yard next in mid to end of January which is when the final inspection should be. If all goes well that will leave them time to wrap up open issues and ship in the begining of March. It is about 3 weeks on the water I believe to get to either Vancouver, Seattle or Tacoma. From there I will take it to Olympia and we are planning a trip up to the desolation sound area that summer. I think Alaska will wait for the following summer.

The kids are growing quickly so pretty soon Elena and I will have some good deck hands.
