Spring 2022 launch

This was the first year ever that Magus was stored on the hard for the winter in Maine.  The Royal River Boatyard is very close to home, so I could easily check on the cover set-up on occasion, although it basically held up fine.  

Being on the hard, it was possible to paint the hull topsides, which was needed.  I may add more details, but we did the best effort since we bought the boat in 2008.  Meaning, the old paint finishes were removed to the gel coat, with epoxy filling as needed, and then given a good two-part polyethylene primer and surface finish; Interlux Perfection.  New bottom paint, zincs, all that.






The launch happened before the end of June, in time to take the boat to DiMillo's in Portland for Echo and her friends to stay on the boat for a few days over the July 4 holiday.
