Audacious Arrives

Over two weeks late and on the eve of our first international vacation in years, Audacious rolled into town and in a terribly stubborn show of force became stuck on the truck less than two hundred yards from the marina travel lift. This incident also blocked off access to the marina for the next few hours while a tow truck pulled Audacious and the big rig she was riding piggy back off the slope they were high-centered on. Ugh. After a brief tour of our new boat, Holly and I had to leave her back in the hands of the delivery company and marina to figure out a solution for launching while we were away. (Once again, squarely violating my hard earned lesson to let no one touch your boat in your absence, unless you enjoy spending vast sums of money on often shoddy work). Well, what could we do but trust and go enjoy our time off? Welcome to boat ownership.
