Splash!

On this bright and beautiful September day Tropical Breeze was launched into the calm cool waters of the Chesapeake! While the Captain and Admiral anxiously watched the launch, naysayers who insisted that the boat had been on land for soooooo long that it was permanently affixed to the boatyard were proven wrong.

The play by play follows:

Photos 1: The lift is in motion. (1:20 pm)
Photos 2 & 3: Tropical Breeze is on the move. (1:35pm)

Photos 4 & 5: Splash! (1:44pm)

So then what? Well we are now nicely tied up to the dock in the marina. With the success of the day, the Captain and I have called for an early Happy Hour - so as of 2:24pm we are floating at the dock taking in the sun and activities around us while enjoying a cocktail. Heck it is 5:00 somewhere after all!

The fun is just beginning!
