The Work Never Ends

I came across more photo's from the early days on the changes made to the Sue.
As I was going through the pics, I couldn't help but think back to that time. Constant work, constant change. I remember thinking, "I can't wait for all this work to be done so things will get back to normal". It took a few years during these constant changes to realize that the work never stops when you own a boat.

Now, as I hope you'll remember from previous posts, the first thing Keith did was change out all the standing and running rigging. 
The second thing he did was haul her out and paint her. And, boy, what a paint job! His son came down for a visit and they applied the graphics before she was splashed. 
By the way, after that first haul out, the Sue would haul three more times before the year was out.

The next thing (if memory serves me correctly) was our absolute dislike of the Nav Station. Keith hated the control board. I hated the design....and the chair. So, even though the chair went bye-bye much later, Keith changed everything else.

Oh....all that has got to go!

Better!

Much Better!












New radio, New VHF, New Design....this will work.
