3SUM with her shiny new bottom painted

3SUM had her bottom painted and is looking pretty good. Lisa was taking the pictures as I motored over to pick her up at the fuel dock. I wish people would just get their gas and go, instead of having a picnic in front of the fuel dock. Lisa had to make quite a jump to get into the boat. We went out and had little to no wind, but 3SUMs new bottom really sped things along.
