We just spent the last 8 weeks preparing Silver Moon for departure, she's almost ready. 800 Watts of Solar Panels. 4 lithum batteries, Watermaker is installed. The Dinghy Davits are installed off the stern. We have a Grill. (Sadly, it is an american grill, so of course none of the connectors work for with the European connectors, so we have to wait to use the grill until we get parts. Naturally everything has taken 4 or 5 times as long, and many of the boxes we had delivered from the US didn't show up for over a month. 

The plan is to leave on Saturday and head to the Isle d'Yeu...  I will keep you posted.
