Alaska Air Seattle to San Diego and five days exercising the boat. Met brother Bernie again and we worked, cleaned, fixed, ate, drank, slept and checked the systems. I reviewed reefing the main. Bernie fixed the reefer thermostat. I spent a bundle getting the EPIRB maintenced with a new 5 year lithium battery and hydrostatic release. We hoisted the dinghy on deck. Saw fireworks and a rock band.
Traveler's Perkins 4-108 looks and runs great and mostly everything else necessary for a proper sea passage works well.
We got to see the Travel lift hoist all sorts of boats out of the water including this 62 ft monster ketch that had leaking centerboard problems.
