On the Hard
A few days ago we made arrangements with Washington Marine to haul Refugio out of the water and keep her 'on-the-hard' for a few months in their yard. There are many other boats there and most are in the midst of being repaired and/or painted. This completes our summers plan to have her close to home (1 hr. drive) so we can finally fully repair the keel and completely sand and repaint her hull in the spring. There are just a few things we plan to get done over the next few months, one of them being 'winterizing' her, draining tanks, etc and then once we're done she'll be tucked in for the winter. We plan to splash her back in the water after the thaw next year and the spring high waters have receded. We have not decided yet but we may be keeping her in the Cincinnati area for a while or maybe we'll just take her back down to the Land between the lakes area. For now, she's close to home, easy to get to and safe from hurricanes.
