In late October Pat returned to Mazatlan to continue the boat work. My son Patrick visited me for a week and helped with the recarpeting project. Here some pictures from those efforts. Other projects completed that have no pictures included finding a lose ground that effected all the lights on the mast, installing new pump parts in the water maker, cleaning up a wiring issue and installing a replacement light fixture in the galley. Busy season!

17 Perpetua's slip for 5 years. She had to move because of a change in policy requiring double slip fees if you were hugging up a double wide slip. Also in the construction zone it was quit dirty too!
18 She moved south one dock and out to the middle of the dock where there was half of a double wide finger.
19 She likes her new home because it catches the daily breezes easier. However, it's a further walk to everything and she's worried about not having a second finger to tie off her lines when its hurricane season.
20 The sunsets are great, with no other boats in the way!
