Checking out Little Wanderer 2

The new boat went on its first sea trial in Singapore on Dec 10, and later that day, the family made the drive out to the marina to have a look at it on the water. The AIS hasn't been fitted yet, so it's not ready for a trip out to sea.

But no matter. There's the business of clinking glasses of champagne, listening to music and checking out the boat, above and below deck. See the specs of the Sea Ray Sundancer 260 here.

We are thinking of having the boat's name moved to lower on the hull. 

A few amenities remain to be fitted, such as the shower head and the air conditioning system. But Eric knew we were coming to have a look at the boat, so he arranged for a temporary air-cond unit to be fitted to cool the below-deck space.

The space below is rather a uh... tight squeeze, but I suppose it won't matter when you are asleep. Mental notes were made about what to buy - cushions, bed linen, melamine crockery... and maybe a fake plant or two! 

Some Verve to mark the occasion. 

C sent his new Mavic drone up, and this is what it came back with: 

Little Wanderer 2 is in the upper row, sixth from top right.
Yes, it's bigger than Little Wanderer by a couple of feet, but still smaller
 than most of the boats berthed here! 

Another pic, with us posed! 

Looking forward to more adventures at sea. 
There's one feature we have on Little Wanderer 2 that we didn't have before: underwater lights! When the sun went down, we turned them on.
