Haulout finished and boat projects continue on land #sailinglife #boatprojects

Ahhhh . not only good to be back in the water, but also to continue with boat projects shirtless and barefoot!

I`m Prepping for the ultimate 2025 challenge! 🚤🌸 After 5 incredible years cruising Japan on my Gibsea 402, I’m gearing up for Chasing the Cherry Blossom 2, a journey to sail the length of Japan during Sakura Season—25 years after doing it by bicycle. 🗾 This haulout in Okinawa is to ready my boat (and myself) for the adventure of a lifetime as I celebrate turning 70! 💪⛵ Follow along for every step of this epic odyssey! 🌊
This is day 14 ( i skipped day 13 as I was on land taking care of some personal matters) of the haul out. I actually splashed on day 8, but on the next day, I discovered a problem, and so tomorrow I have to haul out again.
