We used vinyl plank flooring to cover the existing flooring for the time being. The project was definitely harder than we initially thought but the finished product looks great!

We set sail for Isla Coronados, a place filled with some of our favorite memories, before heading to Loreto to scoop up @KesselUnderway's friend Stephen for a week of salty shenanigans.
