We paid a little visit to R.E.D. today

Beautiful sunny and really not very cold day…

almost felt like spring…

almost.

With the last big recent snow fall we wanted to make sure

there wasn’t accumulation on the tarp

which could pose a risk of

putting too much pressure on the stanchions and fibre glass.

Luckily with where we are positioned this year

we are fairly well protected by the other larger boats

so all was good.

We also took a few measurements.

…figuring where the future generator will fit.

Longer trips away from home port this coming year will mean

we have to plan for alternative power sources.

…a little over two months until spring thaw.

…and this, the epic pic of the day….
