Can turtles fly? | Refitting our 20yr old Sailboat

Can turtles fly?
It’s haul out day! “There is nothing scarier and more exciting than seeing your entire house and everything you own held up by two little yellow straps” That is the understatement of a life time.
We have been waiting for this moment for 8 months and had built up so many ideas of what we were going to need to do once she was out. There were the obvious jobs like scraping and painting of course and the thru hulls but what else did our Hunter have in store for us?
It’s not just the work ahead that is daunting, it’s the haul itself. You hear so many horror stories about things that have gone wrong with this process that it makes you cringe when you see those straps starting to pull hard and your house is slowly being raised out of its natural space.
We feel very lucky to have found our spot here in Urbanna. We chose it because they have a DIY yard and were planning to do all the work ourselves. But you never really know what you are getting into. As we got to know the owner, Jimmy, and his crew of Port Urbanna Boatworks we knew we had picked the right place. They are super professional and get the job done right with out cutting corners or charging that “Mariner Tax” that seems to be on everything that involves boats.
Our list of “to do’s” has now been made and it’s time to start digging into this new adventure and get Honu back in the water where she belongs ASAP!
If you are ever in the Chesapeake and you need work done be sure to check them out.
