Spiffed up and getting ready...
Our Nordic tug Gammel Dansk is out of storage and back in the water. Gammel Dansk has been stored inside since September of 2019 at Walstrom Marine. Walstrom has been an excellent facility for our repairs and upgrades. They installed a new Garmin, a Chartplotter and a Reverso oil change system — as well as a new Wallas cooktop and cabin heater.
Turns out, our old depth sounder is not compatible with our new Chartplotter. We now have a new CHIRP transducer. We need to see our depth when traveling and coming into the harbor and marinas. This overnight haul out and fix will help get us depth information. We cannot — or choose not to — travel without the depth information.
Also, note the Washington State flag and the home port or hailing port. Dan lives there in his head. He made his bed there long ago.
