this morning we had our first boat guest besides deanna... he was a boat electrical expert guy named ryan. he was a very nice young man, but... well... it seems appropriate at this moment to exlain what the standard monetary "boat unit" is. one boat unit (1bu) = $1000.00. this should make it much easier to explain some facts of boat ownership in the future. back to ryan now. ummm, let me continue that subject on monday, when he gives us his price estimate for fixing our depth gauge.
owen update: owen is our ship's cat. he is black. he endured the car ride wonderfully, and is now happily exploring his new home, like a trooper! only problem is at the moment, the boat is on the hard (on land), and owen is getting in the habit of walking on the very edge of the deck. this could prove to be a big mistake once we are in the water, and things start rocking a bit.
one last thing for the day today. we visited kell's (the amazing previous owner of this sweet craft) wife, (also amazing)! we picked up a few things for the boat. we saw their beautiful home and land (i've been sworn to secrecy as to how many acres it is) which is in the east area of the apalacian mountains, and we had a very lovely visit!
time for bed!
