I was pretty hesitant to get back to work this morning, I think because I was longing for some shade instead of the sun. But eventually, I headed to the pool and the cool water was rejuvenating and gave me some energy for more sanding of the hull in the afternoon. Also picking up our brand new windlass helped motivate me to get back to work! And again, Mike did his juggling of many different jobs, including wiring the new battery monitor with the help of a fellow cruiser/marine electrician, Steve from Palantir. But as a result, it was discovered that our fridge and maybe even electrical panel are wired to the starter battery, not a good thing and it needs some more delving into. Steve also gave us a great new list idea (we like lists)! It’s to make a list for everything that needs to happen before you go in the water and then another list for everything that can wait until you are in the water. It’s a simple concept but it is so easy to let everything jumble into one big overwhelming mess. On the bright side I think we may be starting to see the fog lifting. But that means the days for our haul out are getting numbered which only increases our stress and worrying if we can get everything accomplished!
