Launch Day - Finally!

Post by Rugger8 » Sat Jun 09, 2012 9:15 am

After a year and a half of restoration that seemed like it would never end, Adventure is resting peacefully back in the water. Still pumping some, but swelling up nicely. Here's some pics for you.

Well, got the old girl in her slip and for the first time in years, got her name back on her. I kept the same name as the former owner, as I felt it was appropriate (see my trip from North Carolina for further explanation in the boat archive)
