Jerry-can covers & Selden E40i electric winch (Patreon)

Hi guys! 

It's been a good week here aboard Athena :) Ava made super spiffy jerry can covers - they turned out nice! I installed the E40i electric winch we picked up last week. 

We're getting close to our planned departure from Cherbourg, and I'm getting very excited about anchoring for the first time aboard Athena. I have ordered a book called Secret Anchorages of Brittany. The book was published back in 2016 (I think), so I suspect they are now the NOT-so-secret anchorages of Brittany ;) The book is supposed to arrive here May4-9. I was hoping we could go a little sooner, but that's fine; it gives us time to fix minor tasks like strikers on cabinet doors, sealing in the shower, etc. Ava would love to squeeze in a little trip to Paris too ;)

Next week, Ava will be putting a leather wrap/cover on our wheel and grabrails. I'll install grab rails on the cabin top, finish the tackle for the rodkicker, and hopefully make a preventer for our main. 

I hope you've had a fantastic weekend :) Thank you so much for your support! Stay safe :)
