We're still in Ballard Mill Marina, undergoing final preparations for jumping off to Canada. We spent the day today adding wedges to the motor mounts to try to fix an alignment problem. It took much less work then I anticipated and, thanks to a friendly cabinet maker in Ballard, I was able to get a pair of nice white oak wedges very quickly. After installing them and realigning, the vibration was much less than it was before. Which is a big plus for all the motoring we'll be doing in Canada. Tomorrow we're doing a noon hang at a local yard so we can repitch the Max-Prop.
