The Beginning




Holly says:
Well, here we are at Riverfront Marina in Newburgh. We left Minisceongo yesterday at about 12:45 pm, and arrived here 4 hours later. It was very windy yesterday, so we had to go very slow to avoid having the bimini cover ripped off of the frame.

John was ever vigilant concerning the boat's systems, and consequently had quite a few adjustments which included swearing at the mechanical systems!!!:-) Later we discovered a couple more issues for John to work on, so we decided to stay put in Newburgh. We are docked just off the channel, which is not protected, per se.

Today, with the rain storms, the boat has been pitching and rocking violently all day, so we're staying at the marina until tomorrow. We plan to leave early in the morning, with Kingston our destination.

John says: Stay tuned for more!!

    Kiawah was great but the bathroom is still not finished - I hate contractors and architects
