It was definitely a working vacation. Above is the seaReed as she pulled into the dock and I took possession and then the before and after pictures from the interior from that time until three days later when she was all cleaned out. The owner left wet gear throughout the boat and so mildew was everywhere. I wiped EVERY SINGLE surface of the interior of the boat with bleach. She smelled like a swimming pool afterwards!
After getting the interior cleaned up and livable, I took her for a sail. After all, I didn't get a boat that was a complete fixer upper. I wanted to be able to sail her. So I did. That's the video in the last blog entry.
There is still a list of chores, but none that can't be done underway.
