Yes, they finally went up Wednesday afternoon at about 4pm, just a little later than anticipated.  The thunder and lightening of the morning had subsided and the “launch team” were awaiting improved weather for the afternoon.  All the electronic gear is now on, so our ability to find our way out of a paper bag is much improved.  The interior is still in a mess, with much of the flooring up and  insides exposed whilst the last of the installation work continues.  The air conditioning has received a thumbs up from the engineer and the cooling man has pronounced the fridges and freezers healthy.  Cold G&T’s all round soon!

 

                                       

 

We hope to move on board today, Thursday with our first guest to arrive later on; their first task will be to find something to sleep on tonight. Fortunately, the boat is situated right next door to the marina restaurant, toilet block and laundry.
