The Old Silent Dream

As promised a few months ago the following are some of the pictures we took when we first bought this boat which had a different name.

The cockpit with the old instruments.

Oh yeah that lovely curved track with plastic sheaves that were all cracked and broken.

The Galley with the alcohol stove, we added the Microwave.

The Nav Station, notice the old dried out curtains, the Loran at the top right, we added the new VHF Radio.

Port side the original table and updated lighting we added.  
Notice the great Herculan Plaid Cushions.  They never wear out.

The Starboard side with the original lights.  
Looking at the Port side picture the light on the right has replaced these original lights.

The V-berth.

The Rear Berth entrance with vinyl accordion doors.
They look white in this photo they are brown.


So next year when the blue shrink wrap is off you will see the updates we have done this year.  You will see some of the updates in older postings.  Such as the Swim Platform, Wind Generator, Radar Pole, and Full Cockpit Enclosure just to mention a few of the upgrades.  

Until next spring when all this work is finally going to pay off.
We wish everyone reading this a Very Merry Christmas and a Safe, Happy, Prosperous New Year.
