PAINTING A DINGHY?

PAINTING A DINGHY?? Be honest have you heard of this before? We have had the paint on board. Our poor dinghy (our car in the Bahamas) is in need of TLC. It looks awful, mold has seeped in and grows and grows. No amount of cleaning supplies has helped. To get one more year out of our "car", we are painting it today!


MOLD




Paul did one coat and looked pretty good. Will post tomorrow when two coats on the whole dinghy. It is amazing paint and went on well. The blue tape preparation was the real work (me for a lot of it), just kidding. 





See this awesome handle on our boat.... it was just installed! I don't know what we did beforehand.... wait, I do remember, I fell once on the dock! Paul bought for my birthday along with the cool set of drawers, see below. We actually have room in our stateroom for this. And believe or not, the top drawer is empty! 


Many boats arriving for the winter season, including this regular fishing boat. He is ready to go out for the day with his captain on board. Gulf Stream fishing needs a license (Florida), I think next year we should get one.

Hi Shannon and Paul,
RENAISSANCE WOMAN Marianne and Ric here. We hoped to head your way in a week but since they closed the National Parks in the Bahamas we are wondering if they might also close the borders to USA cruisers due to the virus. This is happening this week in many countries (central america, Puerto Rico, Canada and USA (for other countries). Your take on this for the Bahamas, have you been following it?
Thanks,
Marianne and Ric
