Seattle Houseboat Caratello: April 2010
http://caratello-houseboat.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
The building of a Seattle houseboat from the keel up. Caratello is a 44 foot steel hull with a two story house. Only about 750 square feet of living area, but what do two people really need? A caratello is a small wine barrel that is used in making a dessert wine called Vin Santo. Traditionally cantucci (a cookie) is dunked in Vin Santo and eaten. Gotta love a culture that eats cookies with booze! Caratello will use the ancient tradition of using wine stores for ballast, nice! Walls are going up! I went ...

The sailboat Sea Vert in Puget Sound and the Salish Sea. Time to get things ready on Sea Vert, our 32' sailboat in Puget Sound. Last year we spent several weeks enjoying the San Juan Islands and the areas between Everett, WA and the San Juans. It is amazing how relaxing bobbing around for a few hours or a week are when you have good wine and a well stocked galley! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Peckretariat and Hen O' War.

S/V Sea Vert: Getting ready for spring
http://seavert.blogspot.com/2010/04/getting-ready-for-spring.html
The sailboat Sea Vert in Puget Sound and the Salish Sea. Getting ready for spring. Went up to Sea Vert on Wednesday to move to a new slip. The Navy is rebuilding some of the pier due to damage from large wakes and heavy wave action so I took the opportunity to move to a slightly smaller slip which will save some money. Even with the new rates we will be paying just a little less than the 36 foot slip we were in. Sea Vert seems to have wintered really well. I think it helped out that I gave her a good...
