So I am a little bit behind. We had Hurricane Earl pass us by with not much fan fair last Friday, Sept 3rd. I moved the boat from our covered slip to the floating dock so that we would not cause any damage to our boat. So instead of a hurricane party we had a croquette/ pot luck meal with 5 other boating couples! The kids also had a fire safety drill with Bob in the proper use of a fire extinguisher.
Then this past Monday our boat was taking on a dangerous amount of water( which we now believe is coming from a leak in our fresh water lines coming from the pier) and our automatic bilge pump was not working.We discovered that the switch for all of our bilges were cut off. Due to the large amount of water in our forward bilge our ac pump was under water and died on us. Andrew installed the new pump and now we are waiting and watching to see how the new pump works out. Our next project is to install the rubber mat under our aft ac unit to cut down on the amount of noise. I know I am looking forward to having a quieter ac.
