Click on the short video for a snippet of what was going on.
The wind blew so hard it pushed back the tarps and exposed the bow. This is bad because the decks are not sealed and future rains could cause a lot of damage. |
The boat looked a little bit like, well, a pig. |
So CAI secured the tarp over the bow so it could not blow back again. After he finished he felt inspired to either give us his interpretation of that famous
scene in The Titanic, or he's just pretending to be flying with the seagulls. You'll have to pick :-)

So we got the new tarp on. It's only a partial solution. It's not big enough for the whole boat. CAI ordered a new tarp today and we'll pull that up over the top next week. Once the deck has a layer of fiberglass this will not be such a concern.
I do have to say that last night, when the wind was blowing so hard, I was fearful the boat would be pushed over. I'm sure CAI didn't have any doubts about its stability, but my imagination ran wild. But for now, the winds have calmed down.
