Welcome to the blog of Fred and Julaine as we chronicle our adventures traveling on Boreas, our Carver 405.

Days 113-114 – at Joe Wheeler State Park Marina - October 27-28, 2011

We had a successful Rendezvous attending sessions detailing the next legs of our trip, engine maintenance, marine electronics and provisioning (not just the food, but everything you need on your boat when you are living on it for an extended amount of time).  We were also able to have a vessel safety check done on Boreas.  It was well worth the time we spent and we had a great time and lots of fun.

We spent two more days relaxing at Joe Wheeler State Park Marina after the AGLCA Rendezvous was over.  Both days were cloudy, rainy and cold.  Fifty-seven Looper boats were at the Rendezvous and by the end of the day on Friday, all but fourteen of them had departed (we were hoping this would happen so that the crowds at the marinas along the next stretch of the trip would be a little bit smaller).  We spent the two days doing laundry and boat chores and Fred caught up on some work he had to do for projects back in Midland.
