Next Project

Today we are going to San Marcelino, a little town down the road which is supposed to be quite nice and of course we will do some food tasting. We're working on creating an awning with the Sunbrella material I bought in Manzanillo, but Virginia is working on her own covering right now, and her machine is the only one around. Wish I had mine down here; if I had only known!

Because of the rain and intense sun, the covering becomes an important part of your boat. It needs to cover the deck enough to allow you to keep the hatches open during rainstorms because life inside Sidewinder immediately becomes very steamy. In fact, we had a thunder/lightning storm last night which fully reminded us of what is to come. Luckily we have no major leaks. Wish us luck figuring out how to make it. Life certainly continually changes and challenges. Have a great day!

Although my weather prognosis was wrong yesterday..I do hope that you make it to your destination safe and sound. And enjoy El Impossible, maybe we will see you at Restaurante La Ladrillera in Ahuachapan when you arrive.
Good meeting you
