AND...............................

written by Karin

We have to leave on the 29th. We knew that setting a date was imperative and by doing that we would quit procrastinating and hustle and get things done. I live by the creedo of "The best thing about waiting until the last minute to do anything is that it only takes one minute " Joe not so much, so we have been hustling to get ready to leave. Thus the title to this post, we get things down to 4 things that we actually absolutely must have, such as radar, dingy and motor, and refrigeration....then the ANDS set in... and water maker and spares and inverters and solar panels and shade and fresh water deck showers and and and and. We really wanted a water maker, but at a cost of 4 probably 6 grand when it is done is a convenience we will have to do with out. Solar panels will have to wait until the boat is in San Carlos and we have gone back to the states to work for awhile and earn them.  The main thing is we are going!!!!!!!!!!! AND I think it is better without the luxuries for our next 6 months in the Sea of Cortez.  Who knows maybe we will find we can live without and screw the jobs to add them and just keep heading south.   And after Hurricane season of course
