Seminars and Chores

Today we attended seminars on weather and Diesel engines. The seminars were held in a conference room in the back of Roger Brown's, a restaurant in Old Town Portsmouth. The town is historic and quite nice. It is a short walk from our marina. The seminars were informative but to tend to raise our anxiety levels. They emphasize things that could go wrong or everything that we don't know.

In the afternoon I attended a women's round table discussion. It was a lot of fun and helped to reduce my anxiety level. While I was doing that George installed the lee cloth in the salon. It will keep us from falling out of bed when the boat is heeling over. We usually sleep in the v berth, but that is the least comfortable place to be when the boat is bouncing on waves. George and I will sleep in the salon during the passage.

After the seminars I worked on installing snaps on the enclosure panel straps and sewing more Velcro straps onto the panels.

We are scheduled to tour the Coast Guard station tomorrow and then see a movie in an historic theater downtown.
