It's Officially Ours!!

We picked up the keys today.  I snapped some interior pictures while we were down there.

WOO! HOO! Let the fun begin!

This is the new boat we added to our "fleet".  The SHAD is a 1958 44' Power Scow.
This is the bow of the boat.  What you see here is the front of the winter cover.  There are steel gates that drop in and you can see the end of the 16' boom.

Starboard side

Looking down the starboard side towards the bow.  The door with the lock goes into the galley. The other two doors go into the water heater closet and the shop.

Anchor winch on the bow.

Port side stern.  The upper window is in the wheelhouse.  There is a bunk up there too.  On this side there is another access door to the engine room and a door into the head.  I'm pretty excited about the head as there is a toilet and a shower stall.  YAY!!
