The wait for the completion of Spirit Song has been longer than we expected but has been worth the wait. Joy and I are pleased with the result and see the end in sight for time to go cruising. Spirit Song at the Annapolis Powerboat Show and should be headed back to Gainesville on Oct 15 or 16. The initial sea trail was completed prior to trailering the boat to the show. We expect there will a few issues when the bat returns from the trip. Current plan will be for me to spend two-three days learning and acquiring skills to to operate the TT35.

We want to accept and close on Spirit Song before the end of October. Great Loop is on the schedule for April, 2018.
