Almost Ready To Go

We've had a very busy week, which is why unfortunately the Blog has been neglected - sorry!

All being well we are hoping to leave Fort Lauderdale this weekend and do a day sail to the Bahamas (have to clear out of the USA for tax purposes) and then sail upto Chesapeake Bay, which will take about 4 days.
All the contractors finally finished today and the Owners arrived back onboard this afternoon. As you can see their Cabin is looking much better!

Yesterday, we took on 2000 litres of fuel, (pictured below), which only took 30 minutes. After spending up to four hours refuelling Aphrodite it made a nice change!

Everything is slowly coming together but as usual there is still plenty to do.

The plan is to sail to Deltaville, about a third of the way up Chesapeake Bay and spend about a week there. We will then sail upto Long Island where some of the Owners family will join us for a few days.

We have been onboard Moonraker for about 6 weeks now and although we sometimes don't feel like there is time to draw breath we are really enjoying it and can't wait to set off and start visiting new places.
