Progress is happening very fast. According to Tania and Outer Reef the boat will be finished by the end of November. That is a short 5 weeks from today.
I've added photos that I took while at the shipyard. These will provide some great views of spaces that we have not previously seen. Howard's photos are numbered 1-18. My supplementary photos are identified with an a, b or c.

Today, I went to the beachfront with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
