Launching: Sept. 2 2005      Picked up a put on a truck to drive across the street, to another yard that can put it in the water. In all it cost $752.10 to get put into the water from where the boat was for the last year. View an mpeg movie of the actual launch here. . The maiden voyage home. Notice we have flowers tied to the bow for the maiden voyage  Monika cast a few flowers adrift as part of the ceremony     Moored by our floating home where I can continue working on the inside.  We have to finish the ceremony by pouring the rest of a bottle of champagne over the bow.
