Indeed I am making progress in Aliza’s refit; however it is never the pace I’d like it to be. I wanted to be ready for sailing this summer and the real work got in the way. So… I’ll have to work harder and smarter on the refit so I can be ready next summer. Looks like you are going to make it to the west before me. I plan some local east coast sailing for a year or two and then cross to the Med before I go to the Pacific.

Have a great (safe) adventure and stay in touch (my e-mail is in Aliza’a web site).
