This past week was dinghy install week. It isn't quite as simple as it sounds. To mount the dinghy (which is just an inflatable boat) on the swim platform, it requires a lot of special hardware and a special gluing process so it can be tipped up on the back of the boat.
The worst part is that HOLES have to be drilled in the boat to install all the hardware that is required. Well, nothing good can come from drilling holes in a boat, so Patty wasn't to happy about this to say the least. We got it done, tho. We just timed our drilling to happen between 8am - 5pm on a weekday. (Patty works full time).
Til next time............
