Errands and Bilge day
24 March 2017 | Maho Bay
Warm
March 20th
Since we were getting low on provisions, we went into Red Hook and caught the $2 bus to Cost U Less, then when back to St.John for some additional provisions. Since we made good time on our errands (including a haircut for Keith), we went to Frances Bay for the night.
Tuesday morning, while in the process of rearranging some storage area, Keith notice "water" (I say moisture) at a keel bolt in the dry bilge compartment which houses our start battery. This led to bilge cleaning day which I believe is literally Keith's favorite day! We spent several hours pulling up every board to inspect and clean each compartment. In the end, we have one keel bolt that has some moisture coming through so we'll be working on this issue.
