Tikaani is in the water!

…A little later than our original “schedule” (but a cruiser should never use the word “schedule”). Delays included the Bow Thruster – she got all new parts with the final diagnosis of seized bearings. As well, the Spring in Southern Ontario was cold and long, which limited our ability to paint the hull. Boat gremlins were working overtime too, as every new installation, upgrade or repair seemed to take 3 times longer. Regardless, we checked many jobs off the 4 pages from the 2025 Shakedown Cruise list and got the boat in the water.
