We finished scanning the Nomini, but found nothing worth investigating.  Roper took two hits there -- wrapped some rebar around her propeller, and got too much sand in her cooling system.  We will haul her on 28 April for engine and hull work.  With luck, she will be back into the water on Thursday 12 May, sea trials on Friday the 13th (of course), start work on 14 May on the Eastern Shore for the Maryland Historical Trust, and head south to Florida on the 29 or 30 May.
