She's currently laying at Lymington, so yet again, a Solent to the East Coast delivery job. My hope is that we can get the process completed in time for Easter, so that we have 4 clear days for the delivery trip...The survey is arranged, and will be either Mon/Tues next week, or possibly, with a bit of shifting around on the surveyors part, even this Friday... We then need to complete any negotiations (if any), and get the balance sorted...
I need to deal with a few other things...
Buy a 2007 almanac!
sort out insurance
get a solent chart folio (for this trip, and the planned summer cruise)
get crew agreed (not easy over easter)
work out crew logistics
work out when to get a big pile of kit down to the boat (weekend before easter?) and then again for fresh food for the journey!
sort out registration with Part 3
sort out CG66
sort out ships radio licence
buy a liferaft!
pay marina fees
buy new red ensign
decide on boats name
get a sticker made up for name on stern
plus probably a whole load more that I haven't even thought of yet!
