Today is our last day. The past days have been spent getting the boat prepped for the long winter layover. Yesterday we departed the slip and headed down for a pump out. Part of me really wanted to keep going. Wayne Carrol and his wife who own Brewerton Boatyard are some of the nicest people that you could ever meet. We have great confidence in them and feel like Charis is in good hands for the winter. The boat is prepped for up to 40 below zero which they said has happened a few times. Glad we'll be back in Florida for that. We will depart here early tomorrow for a 2 day trip to DeLand to spend a few days with son Jeff, wife Liz and grandson Chase. We'll see all the continuing loopers at Joe Wheeler for the fall rendezvous. Until then, good luck and smooth waters!

We're there!!
We are really pulled out by a cable and winch (see above pictures). This trailer runs on both the railroad track (if you look close) and wheels. As soon as it's out in this position they hook up the fork lift to pull it the rest of the way.
