This trip started not with any voyaging but with getting the boat ready after it had been sitting for three years. For sitting for three years the boat was in very good shape thanks to the way it was left but the engine still needed an overhaul, the bottom painting, and to be stores to be fully stocked along with lots of other odd jobs. All in all this took about 4 weeks of work and a mix off different people including some old crew, some new crew, and some friends who just wanted to help out.

Here's a short video of some of the refit work and a series of pictures:
