Finally took the plunge to a bigger boat

She is being prepped up right now. I pick her up at the end of the week.
SWMBO and I will now be able to overnight in comfort and go for more than 3 day hops.

Thanks for the help from everyone here in teaching me what I need to know up to this part.

New name will be "Magical Dreamer"
