Moving To the Boat

This should be more than just interesting.  Between out-of-town company for the holidays, and more importantly the fact we've rented out our home (condo) for the months of Jan, Feb & Mar, in the next week or so we'll be moving onto the boat.  The challenge of downsizing from 2400 square feet to, um, something that is nowhere near that, is about to become reality.  The admiral says I don't have to move (or throw out) everything -- the condo has a locked closet where I could put some things....although it's about the size of a breadbox and already jamming up with other stuff.

A concurrent challenge will be setting up a good Internet connection and secure network on the boat, for both personal and business use.  The boat's current Netgear router isn't going to cut it, so I'm currently testing out Microtik's gear,which looks promising so far....after one gets past the horridly inadequate documentation.  Good thing they have a detailed wiki.

The good news is we'll have more time to spend on the Ghost Rider's punch list....which still seems to be growing.
