May 18th at 1pm saw the arrival of a big crane and a very heavy boat (we now know she weights 34,000 lbs). There were a few problems, like getting stuck at the end of the driveway. In the end with amazing help from Bill Sharpe and some of his men, Shelley's dad (Ed), the crane guy and the trucker, she now rests safe and sound in her new home... Now the work begins...
Here are some pictures of the big move...
After 9 years of planning, and 4 years of preparation, we are finally on the adventure of a lifetime... On July 1st 2014 we left Ontario Canada setting out on an adventure that might just take us around the world.... This blog is a chronical of not only our trip but the work that went into getting us and our Dufour 12000ct Ketch rigged sailboat ready.... Enjoy... We are happy to share our adventures...
