You can change the oil fill the water tanks and leave for Bahamas/caribbean tomorrow

Also no mold ANYWHERE I hadwipe every inch of the boat weekly. I’m extremely meticulous

You may come test all the rigging start the engine I can go through everything with you SYSTEM but I will not be doing sail trials as everything is new and not faulty and too many people will want to just go for a day cruise. She’s a fine boat and you won’t be letdown by her performance ….
