A friend suggested we could truck Grace south and join the boat after Christmas in say, Georgia, thus skipping the lousy weather and fear about boating so late in the season. Intriguing....for only a few minutes from my perspective. Friend? David and I made a "let's sleep on it" agreement. Next morning over coffee we decided to bring the boat home and conclude our ICW ambitions for this season. We're both pretty exhausted by this entire effort which has held our attention and most of our time and money since April. Let's see, that's 7 months (!) with David doing most of the physical and mental work and me providing support (financial and emotional with a bit of physical boat work). The idea of opening another chapter of ICW/Grace this year...? No. I couldn't do it. So, she's home in our driveway.

A Snug fit. Almost lost the grill on this move. About a 12" clearance!!! And nearly as stressful as the nor'easter in Scituate.
