List Reduction Progress
02 August 2009 | RB, CA
It's finally starting to feel like we are more or less on top of The List. Yesterday Marty began installing the new saltwater faucet. (The galley features a non-electrical footpump that brings freshwater from the water tanks to the sink; an electrical pump w/ regular faucet that brings freshwater to the sink; and an electrical pump that brings saltwater to the sink. Washing dishes first w/ saltwater then a final rinse in fresh is a conservation technique!) The old saltwater-delivery was via a sprayer, which really got saltwater all over the place - anytime we used it, we had to follow w/ wiping down saltwater from various walls, ceiling and windows! Hence the refit.
Farthest left is dispenser of filtered, drink-able water. Next is regular electric-pump freshwater faucet. Next is new saltwater faucet. The hook-shaped faucet part swivels fore and aft and turns to the right, moving it out of the way when using the other faucets. Far right is the foot-pump freshwater faucet.
This is how it WILL look when it is DONE. It is not DONE yet, as it is LEAKING. Very frustrating....
