Also can’t wait to see pics of all the sun awnings!! Great idea! Hope you were able to get your water purifying system working again. Enjoy the rest of the adventure!!! Love that you guys are updating via ham radio haha.

It’s a wide, flat-bottomed, shoal draft boat with a centerboard, a VERY long boom, sloop-rigged.
