Boat Fan: Boat oil? Boat string? Boat cranks? Boat wood?
Boat Fan: Boat mats? Boat paper? Boat bags? Boat air?

Boat Fan: Boat hooks? Boat additive? Boat sealant? Boat seasoning?
Boat Fan: Boat primer? *They got it.* Boat flags? *Three aisles.* Boat jugs? *Invented ’em.* Boat lights? *Captain’s own.*

Boat Fan: Store *looks* like a boat. *Feels* like a boat. *Sways* like a boat. Sometimes gets *lost* for a bit.
Boat Fan: Do… you… need… Boat seals? Boat racks? Boat wheels? Boat wax?
Bystander: *Yes.* I do. I need some boat wax.

Bystander: Gotta wax the ol’ boat every now and then.
Boat Fan: Is that… is that a euphemism?
Bystander: And what if it is?

Bystander: You need to get past your boat hangups!
Boat Fan: *What!!* I don’t *have* any *boat hangups!*
Boat Fan: *That’s* why I need to get some boat hooks!!

Bolted! games have been shipping to backers over the last couple of weeks! The non-US orders are (mostly) done and some folks have been reporting receiving them already!

My US inventory of games is now in-country, but still being staged at the fulfillment centers. It’s being distributed to regional warehouses, so the actual shipping to backers happens more efficiently. I hope the bulk of US shipping will start next week.

These are what the cartons (and games) look like!

I am also waiting on the bonus cards to be finished printing! I ended up needing many more of those than I had anticipated, so I decided to have the game factory print those too, for perfect matching with the base game cards.

Most people will be receiving two separate mailings: the game itself, and “anything else” (bonus cards and/or add-ons) which will be sent by me personally.

As of today, 86% of backers have completed their surveys so far! That’s pretty good, but it’s not everyone. I know YOU PERSONALLY have already completed YOURS though, so no worries!!

We have now moved OFF of Kickstarter and ONTO BackerKit for any new orders. You can bundle a game with basically anything else I sell on that there website, it’s pretty nuts!
