We are back home in Kentucky and what a fantastic and industrious summer we had. We managed to get more done on Refugio than we had anticipated and planned for, starting with the haul-out and various paint jobs. Tom’s glassing of the pilot house went very well. The back wall, of the pilot house, stills needs to be completed, which he intends to do in September when he returns to Texas. We did find a color we intend to paint her next summer, as you’ll notice on the new pilot house. Neither of us has enjoyed having a “stark white” boat, when the sun is out - the glare is a killer; so she’ll be off-white. Tom also installed clear vinyl as temporary windows. We were also privileged to have our boat name hand-painted on the stern, by our dear friend and fellow cruiser, Kyla. We especially like the palm tree!
Brett and Kyla recently began their own sea adventure, be sure to check out their blog to watch their travels.(

Until next time - fair winds and happy travels.
