Pacemaker joins the family.

Shepherd Moons is about to be joined by Pacemaker, an RL24 trailer sailed. Sheppy will still be the live aboard cruiser, but Pacemaker will allow me back into all those places I can't go with a big lump of keel hanging off the bottom of the boat.

Pacemaker is an old boat and needs a lot of tidying up before she can be let loose in the Whitsundays.  She has some of the restrictions that Enya had, but has more room inside and a good sized cockpit.  She also has a long pop top, which will make life in warm weather a bit nicer.

Once the wrinkles,are ironed out it will be nice to spend time poking around in places like Hill Inlet and Saba Bay again.
