We have been meaning to get an update posted, but with Owner’s Trials, training (a lot of systems to get to know), getting familiar with handling and docking, moving aboard, provisioning, getting thru the spares inventory plus storing and cataloging same, the days just seem to slip away.
There have been some small issues to be corrected – nothing dramatic – but things that need to get done before we head off. This process was many orders of magnitude better then our experience with our Nordhavn. The first time it saw the water was when we off loaded it from a ship in Miami – it overheated 400 yards from the dock.
We will try to get something of our own up in the next few days. In the interim, Steve Dashew did a very nice post about Iron lady on his blog. You can access it here
We will leave you with a shot of one of our neighbors who stopped by to play on our bow wave and check out the new kid on the block. A pod of about 100 very large bottle nose dolphin played aorund the boat at 10.5 knots for about half an hour. Very cool and a good omen.
