I've been neglecting my blog lately only because the weather here has been stellar and we've been out enjoying Blackheart as much as possible. 

I've only done a bit of maintenance here and there including a haul out to paint the bottom and replace the zincs.  I also wanted to repack the shaft seal and while I was at it I replaced the log hose.  I then noticed my exhaust hose was weeping a bit so that was also replaced.

We took our maiden voyage across the Strait of Georgia on July 1st and spent a couple of nights in New Castle Island marine park. 

We then sailed down to Silva Bay and stayed at the Page Marine docks for 2 nights where we enjoyed hot showers and a nice meal.
