2012 Work Begins

I have made lists of the work I would like to accomplish on Lil Provo before we put her in the water this May. There are many things to do to the boat, motor, and trailer. This coming weekend will be the beginning of all of that work. This weekend we will pull all of the things that are still left in the boat out, give all the cushions to the wife to wash the covers, and take some measurements for the new sole wood floor I am planning on installing. This will add more to the nautical look inside the cabin. I am also building a step from the companionway to the sole. When the boat was new, it had a small cooler that was the step. We have had no step for years and think it is about time we make it easier to get in and out of the cabin. Next we will move her into the driveway where I will check all deck mounted items to make sure they are tight and sealed from the weather. That is just a start. We'll keep you posted as we progress.
