GaYa on the move again 2021-2022

May 6, 2022 7:30am- After breakfast, we went back to the boat and made sure all the boat floor boards were lifted and we sprayed First Defence in case there are any bugs.  We locked her up and paid Sally the boat storage and lift out fee and left.  GaYa will be resting for another year.  We went to drop off our Certificate of Registry at US Customs as we always did however we no longe r have to do that. We have to wait until next December to get another cruising permit since the one we have expires December 6, 2023.

This blog was meant to share our daily life living on the boat for 5 months.  Thanks for reading my blog and we hope  we are able to do this

They were kind enough to drive us to our truck which was at the marina.  We did our last load of wash which was all the bedding.  As we got back to the boat, they already cleaned the bottom and were bringing it where they put her on stands.  4:00pm- We we’re hoping to go to our grandson’s piano recital however we never got there. Our truck sensor kept coming on. We ended up at the Ford truck dealer in Fort Pierce. They did a quick diagnosis and figure  the throttle body valve could be stuck. Might be because the truck sat so long without being used.  We will be bringing it in tomorrow morning and will have to rent a truck since we need to get our dinghy to the storage bin.  May 4, 2022  We rented a hotel for 3 days until the truc
