We're still here!
It's hard to believe we've been living aboard for four months; We've spent most of the time doing small projects, and research for the big ones. Today was one of those projects. We successfully, and without injury, loaded 300' of 3/8" chain into the boat with the electric windlass. It went through the winch and into the locker perfectly! The other project for the day was installing our house-bank; four 6V Deep Cycle batteries. There's a locker above the bilge pump where they fit, and still allow access to the bilge. I used only stuff that came with the boat, and fabricated a good hold down system. They're secure, next project; getting it all connected
We need to remind ourselves to go sailing! Projects are good, but we need to take our new house for a ride!
Karin is baking a chicken in the oven.....it smells great!
Gotta go........
