Got to club a little after 10am, and got the motor started.
We had to heal the boat over, and gun the motor to get through the mud past our slip.
At the mast crane, we were firmly stuck in the mud.
Took our time removing the boom, vang, running backs, checks, backstay, forestay, and mast wiring.

We took our time rigging up lines above the balance point between the lower and upper spreader to do the lift.
Mark came over when we were ready to lift.

We cleaned up the mast and moved it over to the mast racks.
We also moved Impromptu's mast.
Barb and I spent a bunch of time cleaning up the ropes, while I vacuumed up about 10 gallons of water in the bilges.
Mike winterized Impromptu with Mark.

Peter and Jenny helped me winterize big Still Time; it was all ready and took about 10 minutes.
Good day, despite the weather.
