Happy Thanksgiving - Several project updates

First and Foremost, Deb and I want to wish each and every one of you a Happy Thanksgiving. It is truly a time to be thankful for the things we have and thankful for our relationship with others. For us, it was great to get to spend time with Deb’s Parents, Dan and Joan as they visited us here at our location near New Orleans. During this episode there were several items mentioned and thought it would be best to just provide the links below for reference. Isotemp Marine Hot Water Heater from Defender (11 Gallons) http://www.defender.com/product.jsp?path=-1|51|2234308|2234312&id=2357759 Swerve - Sugar Substitute on Amazon. (I also found in “Fresh Market” but I suspect Whole Foods also sells it) It was $8.99 where I bought it. http://www.amazon.com/Swerve-300115-Sweetener-16oz-1lb/dp/B004X71550/ref=sr_1_1/192-4327589-1638413?ie=UTF8&qid=1448577475&sr=8-1&keywords=swerve+sugar Wonderful place to eat and thrilled they had a reservation on short notice for Thanksgiving. Dakota’s in Covington, LA http://www.thedakotarestaurant.com/ GoGoGail’s Blog with great recipe’s and information.

We have always loved the Formosa, bought one (on a bit of a whim) late in 2014, moved aboard this one right away and started to do our refit while living board. We are avid fans of Cruising Outpost and Good Ole Boat (Good Old Boat) magazines and love the ideas we get from them. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "How to repair a wooden mast, boom, spar or Bulkhead (Step by Step) " https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Nxr-yxUjvQ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-
