We stayed aboard today waiting for the north wind to drive the heat away. It was still in the mid to upper eighties but the humidity slowly dropped as the day went on.

I researched several future projects and Sharon continued working on her sock knitting.

We spent most of the afternoon in the water of the harbor relaxing, until I got restless and washed the sides of the boat trying to get rid of the iron stain. This time I used lemon concentrate which is mostly citric acid and it seemed to work well.
