Day 1 Summit North Marina

Arrived Summit North Marina on the Chesapeake & Delaware Canal to begin re-commissioning “Foreign Affair”.  We were concerned with how she weathered one of the most severe winters in Delaware history.  Our greatest fear was the batteries would have to be replaced at great expense.  Fortunately, they came through fine.  The shrink wrap on the boat was intact; however, upon cutting open the stern access, it was discovered the boat was covered with leaves which had fallen prior to the wrap.  It took us the better part of a day to remove the leaves and we are still working on removing stains left by them in the gelcoat.

Day one we were busy removing leaves, inspecting the boat and loading some of our personal items and gear.
