Hi Phil, our family thanks you, and a Happy New Year to you and your family, too.
Until I checked our maintenance log, I thought new bottom paint was on the agenda for this year. Not so. Usually good for seven years, I was thinking we last did it in 2010, but no it was 2011, so good for one more year.
Finally repaired the warm air duct to our aft cabin heat pump. No heat though, so it appears a recharge with some R-22 is in order.
Also, my boating buddy gifted me his Aladdin 23 brass mantel lantern

Change oil/filter in main engine and Genset and more sailing.
