Back in Napa, Working on "Pink Cloud"

With "Trimming Out" secured in a nice new slip at the Vallejo Marina and Jan back in Hawaii, Paul returned to Napa Valley Marina to get to work on "Pink Cloud."

First things first, "Pink" is moved from the storage area to the work area, closer to the water.

 Beautiful day in Napa, with a view of just some of the covered berths for the motor vessels.

 Looks like Paul found a "treasure" of a director's chair!

HEY, no sitting down on the job...

And, his own personal elevator to the deck!

With trusty "Blue" the VW Eurovan in the background, and the mountain bike locked to one of the stands, NO ONE is going to steal "Pink!"

Notice Paul's done a lot of work in patching, sanding and preparing the hull for painting.

Busy boy!

Ah, candlelight in the cabin...

The next day is back to work!

The mountain bike doubles as transport to the chandlery shop on the premises to pick up fiberglass.

But wait!  Paul hears music and smells a BBQ coming from down the delta...

Yup, there's a party goin' on!

And who's there???

Capt. Paul with his Modelo in hand!

ARG, matey...

Stay tuned, I heard "bottom paint" has been ordered.

:o)
