Haul Out - What Will the Boat Reveal? #solosailor #boatlife #surprises

To replace the dripless seal, the boat needs to be out of the water. This gives me an opportunity to inspect the keel following the repair work last Sept, dealing with a crack and a lingering question: does Wahine have a loose keel? But alas even more is revealed. As they say in the boating world; BOAT stands for Bring Out Another Thousand. :(
