It's The Simple Things...

Evidently Bruce and I are easy to entertain... that being said, one of the most fun things we have done on Dos Libras is simply enjoying the passing of a thunderstorm safe and dry (mostly) in the cockpit.  We didn't have a full enclosure on our last boat and it was always one of the things we wished for the most. 

Dos Libras came with a full enclosure that we have come to love.  We were aboard this Saturday morning and were expecting guests.  I peered out the window from the bedroom and found the weather to be very much uncooperative, which would normally have put a "damper" on things.  Bruce and I, however... not so much! 

Bruce emerged first and lured me up into the cockpit to watch as the sky darkened, the big drops began to pap against the isinglass windows and pop the top of our bimini...

We took our morning coffee into the cockpit and giggled like fools as the frenzy grew...











Bruce kept a weather eye on the iPad and we experienced this thunderboomer to the fullest! 

The rest of the weekend turned out to be a study in human behaviour with six people aboard the boat in the slip with intermittent long periods of heavy rain.Thanks you Shinns for providing us with this wonderful boat!
