Oriental, NC

Doing some last minute cleanup and repairs before the broker comes to document the new boat.

The "non-slip treads" that were on the stern had seen their better days.....

So I used a razor and removed all the old tread.   Cut and installed new tread so now we'll have a no-slip entrance to the boat!

But the highlight of the day was Duane spending a few hours with the generator.....it was having starter issues.  So we replaced the starter with a spare on board.  No real change.  Duane traced some wires and eventually figured out through trail-and-error that the problem was a bad connection, not the stater motor.  So, he decided to put the original starter back in place, removing the spare new starter once again.  (The spare went back in the boat to be used when really needed).  Good fun!  

The broker will be here soon and we're ready now!
