FINAL PREPARATIONS ARE UNDERWAY

At the end of this month Serenity Now will depart Dana Point gliding south to the tip of Baja Mexico. She will explore the east cape of the peninsula and then methodically make  her way back, stopping at coves (ensenadas) and bays (bahias) along the route.

The preparation has been extensive, exhaustive at times, but necessary for a safe and memorable voyage. Systems have been checked, rebuilt, cleaned and lubricated. Special equipment, extra fuel and water tanks have been added. The interior will be transformed from a comfy cruiser to a bare bones, no fluff efficient one. The cruising, weather and tourist guides have been studied along with the nautical charts for the route. Numerous waypoints have been inputed into the two GPS units. The prep goes on and on.

"In the end, it's not the years in your life that counts. It's the life in your years."... Abraham Lincoln

A special thanks to the Admiral for making this happen. I love you.
