new holding tank secured

19 May 2012
Ok, so it's not hidden yet. It's secure. The frame around the front of the tank is holding the tank firmly. Next step is to find some teak plywood, all I have to do is screw it onto the front and a sliver at the top. Been a productive day. Had a battle today with my vented loop, it's sucking too much air in. The system works GREAT when you put a finger over the vent. Hmm...

About:
I got a boat in the first place because cruising is a family thing. I have many, MANY good memories of sailing that involved my uncles, my grandparents, and the good people at VYC. My crew is my family, and anybody else who decides to come along. [...]
Extra: “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain
