Splash day is finally here!!! - Log Entry - 97- Knot Vanilla

[@sailingsvsaultlife81]

Welcome back in the water. I must say we are a bit envious as we will be on the hard till next year some time. Love the sailing life sometimes. We will just live vicariously through you for a while.

The time passes so quick. It felt like forever she was on the hard, but the time flew by and we got right back into the swing of things.

Looking forward to running into y'all in the Bahamas this winter. Leaving Tampa in November.

[@knotvanilla7808]

Thay will be perfect to catch up. Look forward to bumping into you.

Congratulations on getting her back in the water! I didn't realize that you were so close to Stuart/Port St. Lucie/Jensen Beach. That is a great area! If you have an opportunity, it would be fun to see your trip through the canal back to the Indian River and the ocean. Fair winds!

It felt great to see her float after so long on the hard. That passage video is actually coming up in the next week. We hope you enjoy.

@@knotvanilla7808 Thanks for taking the time to answer! I have no doubt that it felt good, and I look forward to seeing the passage. Cheers.

Hey,,, just found your channel. are you guys sailing and Endeavour? she looks a helluva lot like my e38ac, especially the interior :D.

[@knotvanilla7808]

Yes. She is an '86 Endeavour 35.5. Just the perfect size. Although, we still have that 5.5ft draft to take into consideration.

Congrats... I saw the same model boat I have in your opening shot... It's a Gulfstar with the wide aft and hard bimini with solar panels and ladder on the mast. Would you know the name of it?

[@knotvanilla7808]

Unfortunately we never bumped into the owner, and do not remember reading the name in the stern. We looked at a Gulfstar when we started boat shopping. They arensome amazing boats. We couldn't find any in our price range at the time though.
