Sonador is quietly in her slip for the next several weeks -- will be doing mostly day trips from here -- to Petoskey, Harbor Springs, Traverse City and the like.
It took Chessie about ten minutes to remember how to relax and enjoy the "bimbo" cushion on the bow -- and Mom about twelve hours to unload all the stuff from the rental. The water is so clear here, you can see the bottom at 10 feet -- even have fish swimming around.
Some of the nearest neighbors on C dock -- the Chris Craft has been lovingly restored by friends -- they've been out both days waxing and polishing the top-sides -- and helping me get all my stuff on-board. The other boat is a beauty -- topsides is mahogany, body looks to be fiberglass (but I can't really tell) -- her mast is as tall as any in the marina, and there are some boats 50' or so here. Note there are no lifelines! Does anyone recognize her?

does it still have to be called the "bimbo" cushion when you or i use it? just wondering about reputations in DC you know ;-)
No -- I suppose that we could change the name to protect the innocents!
