So neat, thank you again for all the pictures and explanations. I am surprised, though, I always thought the keel was a swing type on sailboats until I saw this. I had to look it up to learn the different keel types, (full, fin, fin racing, bulb, wing and swing) and the advantages/disadvantages of each. It struck my as odd that the boat did not go down so far (and need to sit higher in the trailer) but now I see that if not in the pursuit of outright speed and razor sharp handling i.e. a ship like Orca, it is an advantage to have the strange looking (to me) full keel design. I think I can easily get used to the looks and 99%of her life she will carry that feature out of sight. What a beautiful (and practical) boat/ship you have.

I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures. Thank you for your nice comment.

I bet Orca can smell the ocean now

She's almost "home".

 

[Iriana]

Aaah... Getting splashed.

 

[Iriana]

She's home, -sweet home...at her own slip.

Ready for a new adventure or a fishing trip. Yey.....

Her galley. Sink with running water. Fridge, microwave and a wood burning stove. Some remodeling work has been done after this picture was taken.

Sun was shining on a stainless steel cooking pot reflecting light on the ceiling. I really liked how it looked so I took a picture....LOL.

Oh yeah, and the lace curtains adds a little womanly touch

Thanks Dianne. So glad you like her. I wish we'd be going south. I'm afraid we will just be doing trips here in Alaska for now.

When does it get too cold to sail that far up? If it does? Squib

Hmph. The forum lets me upload this photo of me feeding a taco chip to our friendly backyard cottontail, but not the shots of some flowers. All were taken today, all were edited in Snapseed.

Hey LarryC, I had one bunny like that named Dagwood! Then I had 100.bunnies.....I live in Whonnock and the neighbors were so aggravated because everyone was losing their flower gardens etc that there was a half page article in the local paper heading reads THOSE WASKILY WABBITS IN WHONNOCK !. I had to do a catch and release program! I released them into a huge research forest about 1/2 mile away, on the other side of the highway! Squib.

The rabbits are here anyway, though the coyotes and hawks seem to keep their population to a tolerable level. They love chicory, so planting it around the perimeter of a garden largely distracts them from venturing farther than the edge. Feeding this one is just a stunt performed occasionally for special friends...like you guys!

If anyone cares, here's the error I get after some of my photos upload:
