GETTING READY TO 
SPLASH (LAUNCH)


Gene painting the bottom 
of Moody Blues' wing keel


Ah, fresh bottom paint.
Barnacles hate fresh bottom paint!



In the travel lift heading for the water.


Trucker's ratchie straps uncoiled.


Coiled.


Cincher.


Yes, the hooks are strong.
But so are hurricanes . . .


Our neighbor in the yard, 
Rhum Runner, 
out of the water for some R & R & paint!


Speaking of R & R, 
time to celebrate getting launched!

SORRY!


HOLA FOLLOWERS,

I've messed something up. 

All, but the Snorkeling and Snorkeling Again, are old posts. 


I can't get to the dashboard of the newer MoodyBluesCruise blogsite I was using, so now I'm forced to use the old blogsite. I'm about to throw the computer and the antenna overboard. Gene too if he does anymore Mars to my Venus! 

Sorry, I'll be posting to here now until I can ever figure out what went wrong. 

Good luck, right? Later . . . 

SNORKELING AGAIN


The driver is George, s/v Wildcat with Jack & Linda, s/v Xanadu. Linda is grabbing the small mooring buoy to tie the dingy up to.


Blue tang with his yellow tail buddy.


Tube sponge.


Venus sea fan.


Hawksbill turtle.


Fused staghorn coral.


Long-spined sea urchin and maybe orange tube coral.


So fun to see how the fish blend in with the rock and coral. Fun times in the water.

SNORKELING



Barrel sponge?


Not real clear, but a few small reef fish.


Smooth star coral.




I got Gene's attention and pointed to this. I thought it was an octopus, so Gene took a shot of it. But it's some sort of coral.

BAD CONNECTION
I'LL POST THIS AND TRY AGAIN!

MOODY BLUES 
ABOUT TO TAKE A NAP


Moody Blues at Spice Island Marine's dock, soon to be hauled out and stored for 2015s Hurricane Season of which we hope there are none. 

We did so much more than I posted, but that's the problem with having too much fun! I dropped the blogging ball . . . for fun!

So happy life everyone, peace on earth and love the one your with!
