Greetings from Captain Wado to the millions of you who following this gripping tale of struggle, hardship, misery, obsession, and love.
I'm sure that since it has been months since my last update, the rumors have been flying about what new crisis may have interfered with the already snail-paced progress of this historic restoration.
Is it his heart???? Is it lack of motivation??? Could it be lack of capital???

Well rest easy my friends, I feel great and the only reason I haven't been working on the boat is because Susan seems to think that some projects around the house should get some attention. I realize that we ripped up the carpet in our bedroom  5 or 6 years ago with the intention of putting down a wide pine in its place and we are still looking at a plywood subfloor. But hey, it is painted and I hardly even notice that it's not finished. Personally I don't see how this could bother her when the boat sits out there with no finished floors or even a bathroom sink.
The other project that she has requested for years was to make our screen room more of a year round room by putting in real windows. I decide to tackle this project since there is a tax credit available for replacing windows and that would help keep the costs down.
Take a look at the reason I'm not working on the much more important job of building a boat.
 

Oh my.... the things we do for love....

Big News!!!!

Susan wrote an article for Houseboat Magazine and we will letyou know when it is going to be published.
We also recorded a video tour of the boat for them and once they put it up on their website I'll put the link here for you.
Their website is www.houseboatmagazine.com

Hang to the riggins,
Wado
