Short Time Left at Hop-O-Nose Marina

We're now about a day away from starting south on the next adventure, on Autumn Borne.
It's been a wild summer here; running out to the Hudson to anchor, and weather storms (Hurricane/TS Irene, and the remnants from Hurricane Lee); and then being pinned to the docks for two other creek events.

Most of our projects have been completed, or are in the final throws.  The 6 year old Gel-Cell batteries have been replaced with AGM units, doubling the battery capacity of the AB.  The SSB transmitter, which had a slight corrosion, and static hit on the IC transmitter section is being repaired, and the watermaker will now have a new membrane.  

A week ago we constructed a second jerry can rail along the port side of the vessel. (The starboard rail holds the scuba tanks, and diesel, and now the water can be separated and moved to the port side (where the water fill fitting is located). 

We're trying a new blog layout too...  So... this should be interesting.  :)
