Last year this time we were in France visiting my side of the family and surprising my Dad’s 70th birthday! This year, we are little more busy doing other things… Nonetheless our thoughts are there still… Isn’t it so ingenious of me, trying to hide yet another maintenance post!!! Although knowing you all, I doubt [...]
Life is cruel, and full of irony. We lived in some of the best birds-watcher paradise, and always wondered how such a “hobby” could be so fascinating, why would you spend so many hours trying to identify them?
Well… well… the table has turned, as you can see we have now built a new [...]
Because we are done with the big project doesn’t mean we are entirely done. And I had to solve this water evacuation problem if I didn’t want anything to rot in this locker. So this morning was a perfect opportunity, since we had to be out of the house for some visits, if you know [...]
After two days on my own, *V* couldn’t take it anymore she had to see with her own eyes what I had been up to! And on this day the 3/22/2012, we are officially done with ALL major projects on our “to do list” aboard Letitgo. My legal counsel advised me to add this disclaimer [...]

There are a few hints for [...]
We braved the element today, indeed on our way to the marina a squall hit us and brought hale. Winter wonderland on 13th March, who said you need incentive in life, you just need to live in the right part of the country.
After our last post, I asked Rich from [...]
We can say it loud and strong, we did the most expensive pickling job ever but we will come back to this later. Today the goal was to ensure that the watermaker was 100% functional and properly pickled. We can say it, success. Our friend Jim was also on board to take all dimensions for [...]
When I left home today, in my mind it was going to be a couple of hours worth of work, and I should be done! Well, well… why not *L* since when you are a dreamer?
So what really happen today, half a dozen trips to the chandlery 10 hours of work and what [...]
I had done a site survey last week, and made my decision on the install location. Port side front Lazarette. Why?
Because I wanted:
To have all the elements in one place for easy service and monitoring Location had to be water damage proof. Central for access to auxiliary component (tank, power 12V [...]
When the FedEx man arrived today, it felt like Santa Claus was in the house. One of the biggest purchase made for Letitgo has arrived, the water maker.
The first impression was positive. Well packaged, very organized and detail oriented. The stylish metallic blue of the membrane [...]
