We bought a boat without a sea trial because it was buried in the back of the yard. Spending two huricane seasons on the hard we did all we could to recondition the boat for the passage. Now its time to head out. Not all the systems tested but if it is going to happen it will happen out there.

We bought a neglected catamaran in Grenada without a sea trial and this will be the first test of the systems. Then we will sail 2800 miles back to Texas to continue the rehab before leaving the dock for good.
