I pass this boat each time I go ashore. It--and I intentionally do not use 'she"--is on the main dock near one of the two ramps to the marina. Apparently the owner is unaware or chooses to ignore the rule about storing bicycles and other crap on the dock.

A clarification.
If--and note the 'if'--I ever cross another ocean it will not be for years. If it happens I am saving it for my 80s which don't start until November 2021, assuming I last that long.
I am so content in GANNET's present location that I may sip Plymouth gin or 10 year Laphoaig on deck though the remaining sunsets of my life.

My time on the little boat is almost over.
Next Wednesday I fly to Phoenix where I will meet Carol who will drive us to a resort in Sedona, Arizona, near the Grand Canyon, to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. On August 18 we fly together back to Chicago.
I will return to GANNET in October or November, depending on where Carol wants to spend Thanksgiving.
