Day 31 Nov 18 Nashville
November 18, 2003 2 Comments
We packed, emptied the fridge and water tank and were ready to go at 8:00AM. Marlow’s crew moved the boat expertly to the lift and hauled it out. The bottom was as clean as could be. Green Turtle Bay did a great job on the bottom paint in July. The prop did not have a single nick so we had been lucky. We left Marlow at 9:00AM with Ria Grasman and arrived in Nashville at 8:00PM. Much of the drive was in the worst weather we have seen in over a month. That’s the story until the end of March. Look for the blog to continue then.

Welcome home !…….great trip betcha cant wait until spring!…..
Bob, We are friends of the Bratton’s, have met you several times on Kenlake, trips to Golconda, and guests at your house party about 13 months ago during the Nashville Boat Show. Anyway, Kathy Bratton shared your travelogue with us, we have reviewed it all, and will travel vicariously with you for the duration. It sounds as though you are off to a great start.
