| The start of the roaming chickens! |
The yard got the formal go-ahead to start repairs on Fleetwing today so we were ecstatic. If repairs proceed as planned, they will be finished Monday afternoon and we will leave for Marathon on Tuesday morning. That would put us in Key West on Wednesday.

The main progress today was on the fiberglass repair to the aft section that impacted the tugboat. The location was where the majority of the water came in while under power. They will also get rid of the rope marks on the side of the hull caused by the anchor rode rubbing.
We plan on taking the extra time to do some exploring of the area. We usually just bypass the middle Keys on the way to Key West, not stopping to look around. It feels so good to finally have an outlook for moving again!

Great to hear things are going well and as I said in a previous comment I'm glad no one got hurt.
So glad to hear that you seem to be at a good yard and the insurance process is moving quickly. Fleetwing will be better than new. Does Hoolie like the roaming chickens? My Booster would be amazed and want to play. All my best, looking forward to your continuing to Key West!
Wow, very scary. Happy that no one got hurt and that Fleetwood can be fixed so quickly. Good lesson for all of us. We are following your adventures with great interest. All the best!
