Captain has been working on lots of little projects on the boat. Here's the list, thus far:
The icebox wouldn't drain. Hmmmm. So now all those great big ice blocks that we bought are melted into water and the icebox is about 8" deep with water. Hmmmm. Turns out someone had put the draining hose into a 16oz water bottle. The ice box now drained into this water bottle instead of the bilge. So, once the bottle was full it just backed up. That was an easy fix, but a puzzling one. Captain hopes to rig up the icebox so it drains directly out the side of the boat. A project for another time.
The bathroom (head) sink wouldn't drain. Hmmmm. Back to the icebox situation? No, this time it was a clogged drain. Gross. Well, the boat is 23 years old and I guess after all those years of use, the drain decided to give up and clog. Caption took it apart and snaked it out. Gross (did I say that already?). Thanks Captain!
The main hatch leaks. Captain pulled out the Companion Way hatch slider. Took out/off the old caulking and added some new. A great new seal made a huge difference! We are now leak free!
New faucet in the Galley. Well, this wasn't really a repair. Someone (uh, me) asked for a new or updated faucet for her sink. It's soo very nice! Thanks Captain.
Installed a new 800 watt inverter. This allows us to plug the TV in. Yeah, the TV. We like to watch movies!
Clips on the halyard to fly cute little boat flags! Well, we fly the American Flag, a flag that reads "Sea Mist, So. Freeport, Maine, and depending on when it is, a flag with a martini glass on it or a Jolly Roger.
