Finally, after having Lilinoe for over six months, we were able to get a week of work done over Thanksgiving week...click on picture for larger view...
BTW, folks have asked me about the fees in Japanese Marinas. At this one, I was charged about $100 for lift out, $100 for lift in and $100 per day (this included cradle rental and yard space). There is not charge for lifting/shifting boats to get at pad spots.

up and out! Haulout was done at Velasis City Marina. One of the most modern facilities in Tokyo Bay. |

Ohhh boy...lotta bottom work waiting. This is part of yachting pleasure people don't tell you about! |

Lilinoe after cleaning, sanding, patching and two coats of bottom paint...one more to go. |

Finished for this round...heading back to the lift. |

Back to our marina afternoon, Thanksgiving day. |

Two happy, tired boat owners! |
