Still Time was the 11th boat in. Standing around I realized that I didn't attach the steering wheel! A quick trip up the ladder to attach it.
I also lubed the shaft seal with some dish soap. The shaft seal is lubricated and cooled by water from the lake coming up the prop shaft. When the boat is put in the water, there could be an air bubble keeping water from the seal, so the squirt of dish soap lubes it until you can "burb" the seal to get rid of any air bubbles.
Lift started t 8:42am
Still Time has a new slip on the east side of the eastern most dock.
We look over the breakwater from the stern:
That is the collapse dingy on the deck.
The 2017 boating season is here!
