Yes, getting colder up here in the North. But I have been stuck in Cleveland all summer for work, so I opted to wait until Sept to launch the boat, and pull at the end of the month. Of course, Murphy's law prevails and I had some poor weekend weather and family issues, so I have only been out twice. I may pull it next week, but will wait and see.

I have a shopping list of work to be done it for sure (new electrical system is at the top of the list).

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
