Still Waiting

Spring is finally here!  The thermometer is reading 51.8 degrees outside and it is staying lighter later.  We'll be pulling the SHAD out of the water in a matter of weeks now;  the anticipation is killing us!! 

There is so much to do to get 'er ready for the haul out.  Luckily we have many friends who have volunteered to help us with this enormous project.  I'll be posting pictures of the haul out process and what has been now dubbed the pressure washing/scraping/painting extravaganza.

Gee... if you're not busy beginning the first Sunday in May, look us up... we can use all the help we can get!!

Curtains are now finished!

We finally finished the curtains for the wheelhouse and captain's bunk; they didn't turn out too bad!

King Crab....It's what's for dinner!!

The Golden/Brown Commercial King Crab season is underway in Southeast Alaska.  We were lucky enough to score a couple crab from a Commercial Fisherman friend last Friday, so we had some close friends down to the SHAD for a Crab Feed Extravaganza!





Still steaming!
