I need to tone this down with this excerpt, just take the pics for what they are,,,,we love this boat and she just needs some TLC.

I’ve purposely toned down this post because it’s not supposed to be just about the negative,  it’s a new beginning for us and the boat. 

Hot Wife made a point to tell me to “move on” Saturday in the parking lot after we had done all the work you’ll see below, cause we’re not continuing to focus on the negative.  We’re moving on to the strength and stability this boat will give us on true blue water and in life as we move onto her as a family.  She’s our new (to us) boat and we’re looking forward to all the TLC we need to give her to bring her back to Bristol shape.   But take a look at my photo essay below and you’ll see just the first day of cleaning work.

Toothbrush and personal toiletries!
Finger bandage. At least, I think it’s a finger bandage.   After showing it to hotwife, I had to trash it quickly.
Dog’s food and treats.
Parts of dog’s toys.
Toiletries
Very personal books hidden in the bathroom cabinet behind the toiletries.
Shelves full of personal utensils?
Full trash cans and full bathroom trashcans.
Fridge (off) full of stinky and now rotten foodstuffs (O-Doul’s???)

Warning: Don’t continue to look closely if you’re easily grossed out! 

Completely dirty and uncleaned toilets,,,,who does this? Who really leaves shit stains and walks away?

But don’t worry, we started cleaning immediately!

Master Head, dirty toilet, full trashcan in the head, dirty floors.
First thing we did,,,,mattress had to go! First trash run of the day.
2nd trash run,,,that’s (8) bags of trash before 1000 in the morning!
3rd trash run- that’s another (6) bags of trash before lunch,,,plus a broken stool and a dryrotted lifejacket.

On the flip side, we did find at least one set of (new) treasure:

And this was just our first day on the boat,,,,Saturday.
