This is the only picture I have from this past week. Due to rainy and inclement weather, the painting of the hull took longer than expected and the commissioning process is somewhat behind schedule - the vessel needs to be presentable (but not necessarily functional) for the Annapolis Boat Show in October
 The base color, Champagne, has been applied to the hull and still needs to be completed.
