Looking for a Catamaran Cruising Blog?

If you found this blog via a link from a cruising site ~ we did cruise Mexico on our Ocean 49 cat for a season. See the first text box on the right for links to our preparations, trip down Baja, life in Mexico, cruising and trip back up to SoCal. Unfortunately we are back to the grind in the USA...

Can't Recognize Our Dinghy!

We finally got around to having a dinghy cover made for gooey kablooey.
This was not a project I wanted to attempt...
Inside window coverings, yes.
Sunshades, yes.
Pillows, yes.
Dinghy cover, no.And since Lucy sold her machine and lives far far and away in Texas, we had Danny of "Pacific Threads" make it.
Good price and quick service.
Hmmmmmm... now to remember we have a gray dinghy instead of a white one...

I loved my dinghy, and mucking around in it, as much as I loved margaritas after a long, hard day of cursing the outboard.

Hey, that dinghy cover looks pretty darn good. Glad you were able to get that done. It will really save your dinghy. Sure wish we could have been the ones to do it for you, but....

It's not a "Lucy" cover, but he did a good job!
Hauling at Berkovich's on Monday... Oh yipee. Abaroa was mas dinero. Everyone keep your fingers crossed for no rain, so we can get out and in quickly.

I won't make any jokes about dinghy covers and condoms. I promise!

Alaska Dave: LOL
We have made quite a few dinghy condoms over the years. We used to make the same joke.
