While Continuum was in great shape, some of the equipment needed to be update (Radar, GPS, Stereo, Wind generator, Windlass). Other equipment needed to be added for safety and comfort. The wish list only gets bigger the longer you own a boat. We found ourselves setting budgets and boundry's to cope with our economic constraints and prioritizing our wants and needs.
The bucket list:
* Windlass
* Anchor and Chain
* Raycor dual fuel system filters
* Stereo/Radio Cd/DVD
* Garmin 4212 Chartplotter and Navpod housing system
* Garmin 18 GMR HD radar system
* Solar Panels (Kyrocera 135 watt panels)
* Refridgeration ( we love ice cubes)
* Rehab the dingy or buy a new one
* Hatch covers
* New Anameter for our B&G wind indicator system
* Water Maker
The list goes on and on. Everyones says, "its a boat."
