What another gorgeous Friday on the Lake! Lots of busyness going on around here....if you're lucky enough to live in the area, as you drive by I'm sure you've noticed the tractors and trucks and burley young men spreading gravel and rocks for the new landscaping that's part of our new dressed up look! The painting on the Kate is coming along nicely especially the outside with these wonderful sunny days. We're ordering new fun items for the Museum's Gift Shop and Ship's Store ~ just wait til you see....

Inspite of today's unfavorable weather the ship's 6 week spring maintanence continues with scraping the old paint replacing p***y boards, sanding and new painting, engine tune-up and most importantly crew training and reprovisioning for our upcoming "happy sailing season"! You'll be seeing fresh landscaping around the Museum as well...
