Greetings

There has been a major update to Tallowah's engine room this past month. New front engine bed, new mounts all around, oil pan gasket replaced, front seal replaced, all fuel lines, new water muffler and exhaust routing (now out transom rather then both sides), new secondary diesel filter..... and a major scrub up on both engine and engine room. At first what was a daunting task, quickly turned into a very gratifying labour of love. The heart of Tallowah's systems is refreshed. Paid her back for all her great efforts towing vessels and powering into heavy weather over the past year. What a joy. Check the photos.

We have a 6-7 week trip planned from the 12th of July until school begins again. Going north with our friends on the good ship Petrel (CG36). Tallowah will be showing off a new coat of paint on decks, cabin top and cabin sides. Cap rails are now back in place and getting shined up. New stern railing and a custom SS mainsheet traveller system. New water tank under salon sole. Will post a few pics in a couple of weeks when the work is done and the rum is poured.

Little bit by little bit, Tallowah is losing her rough edge. A grand yacht shall appear out of the fog one day.... and I may say then that she is what I always knew she'd be. A stunning, completely unique version of the CG36. Blessings.

Fair winds to you all!

Adam
