You have to scroll down to the actual post, but the mayor posted a bunch of pictures of the Susanne, the boat, the piston castle and a few other sights.
 
I think I pasted the link to photo album properly here:

225hp, I don't know if that is a lot or a little for a 39 foot working boat like this.

At least no ID necessary to buy whatever.

I look forward to long restful sleeping now that the debugging, testing and demonstrating of her is coming to an end.
But not to worry – more stuff to fret about !
Just not this boat’s performance and behavior.
More on this and of course selections of my images of her running later.

P.S.:  Someone said that she may be the first 39-foot long boat built in Gloucester in 30 years. 
If so, why this widow to end this spell of ‘no-can-do’ ?!
At least no one can say that this work can’t be done here.
Hence, a good thing to have Sefatia along for this morning’s ride.

John,
I keep them posted.
However, due to Sequestration and other budgetary unfortunates I came to own her.
Now, after this testing-cycle in her original configuration she is transitioning into new hands, a different layout and a second very different life, as I’ll share with you down the line.

But as I stated, more on her with pictures, some data and reports on various testing-episodes later.
MAIB’s next issue will have much more on what had happened up to the Launching along with a few early visuals of her first days afloat.
As an early note, she does everything she was supposed to.
I am gratified.  Tired.  But gratified.
Design #681, the first completely without Phil’s input, has been built, is running, works, and looks good being long low and lean...

I look forward to long restful sleeping now that the debugging, testing and demonstrating of her is coming to an end.
But not to worry – more stuff to fret about !
