Hello everyone. The refit is moving along in a very positive manner. I am so excited about the end result, as I am sure you are too.
The galley is designed and built. All galley appliances are in. This will be a dream galley for anyone who loves to cook on the high seas. Granite is picked out and ready for sink, faucet and such. The ceiling in the main salon is going to be a work of art. The main salon and console are designed and ready to be built.
The master suite is designed and ready to be built. It will include a King Size Temperpedic bed. The master bath is going to allow Mark to move around without skinned elbows and such. Sailboats are tough on Big Tall Guys.
For all the guys out there, we are adding extra fuel tanks and added water tanks for the long voyage to the South Pacific. Rebuilt the engines, adding better ventilation in the engine rooms, better sound dampening and insulation in the entire boat. We are adding an enclosure to the fly bridge to make those passages in rough weather a little more comfortable. In the past we were quite exposed to the elements good and bad.
A lot of thought and planning has gone into our redesign. We lived aboard over a year and over 4600 nautical miles, so we could make better decisions on the changes we would make to Lucky Jack. I know a lot of you keep asking for pictures and I will add some soon. I have been following another blog of world cruisers and they have inspired me to up my blog game.

Just want to say hello to our Mother's and to all our friends who we miss terribly. It will be a few short months before we are back on the water. Be sure and check back soon for some sneak peeks of Lucky Jack's new look.
Hope to see you all soon on the big blue watery road,
Theresa, Mark and Sailor
