Spent a lovely evening in the drizzle, loading the boom, jib boom and other assorted goodies into the cabin, then hanging some fenders. T-1 day until launch, and I've got the usual jitters about engines not starting, etc, etc. Better to worry about stuff than not, I suppose.

Looks like I'll be the second boat launched on Thursday as there's a Coronado 25 (Dunn Craven is her name) going in first. I should be safely on the mooring by 10:30 at the latest. I know this because the owner of the Coronado was also in the yard doing last minute stuff. We have all winter to plan, and all spring to fit out, and yet for most of us it comes down to last-minute chores on a rainy night right before launch.

I headed over to the Salisbury Town Dock and yep, the dinghy is still inflated.Small victories are sometimes the best. The harbor looks fairly empty, though, and there's still a bunch of boats sleeping under tarps/shrinkwrap.
