We are at the END of IT



We are at end of it alright, it is time to get the MANANA name and the Home Port of ESCANABA MI
place on her stern. I guess I can now understand what it is like for an elephant to go through the long pregnancy. It appears we will slide down the ways into the bay before the season is over. Most likely will not be enough season time to make it worth while getting a dock space at the marina in Escanaba. What it appears we will do, it set up a mooring buoy in a cove at the Vinette Boatworks and do so sea trials and make up a new work list for the winter layup.

About Me

My photo
I am the Captain of what you might ask. Am I a has been or do I serve a task? Oh, I sail now and then, drank rum from the cask. I'm now beached on the hard, dreaming of visits to ports, from the sea I'm barred and off even keel of sorts. My helm locked and marred as my body grows warts. When next comes Spring, heaven will rain my mana and sea song I will sing, while keeping beat with a banana. The ships bell will again ring at launch time for the Manana. Cast the lines - raise the sails, chart a course for any place. Rig the ship for mighty gales, take all storms right in my face. Fear not what make good sea tales, Captain again - gleams on my face.
