New Crew on the Way

In a few short weeks we'll be adding a new member to our small crew.  Millie and I are expecting a bouncing baby boy on April 12th.  We don't know what his name will be yet but we're pretty sure he'll be a sailor.  I'm already looking forward to the day when he'll be old enough to stand watch.

Given Millie's current physical state we thought it would be best to move off the boat for a few months and are now shacked up in a little house in Oakland.  This provides some additional comfort for her and makes it easier for me to work on boat projects.  I'm already planning the haulout and will be recruiting help soon.  Each of my brothers should expect a call.
