Kiskadee arrived in Esquimalt on March 25th. Yes that's a different truck, as the original truck's engine died in Quebec. Other than road dirt and a sheared gooseneck, she was in excellent condition. A quick rabbit resulted in a replacement gooseneck that is far superior to the original. Thank you Canadian taxpayers.
New Gooseneck
Sheared GooseneckOver a couple days I replaced a cracked thru-hull, painted her bottom dark blue and rigged her mast. She was launched on 31 March. Every ocean is a new adventure and this was Kiskadee's first taste of Pacific salt water.
