Subject: Still in Brunswick
It has been said that cruising is nothing more than working on your boat
in exotic places. Using that definition, minus the exotic places,I
think it can be said that we are now cruising.
Cathy paints inside lockers
Cathy and I spent the last week and a half doing boat projects, primarily
trying to get the new water maker installed and working properly.
After doing battle with the water maker for days, and facing the prospect
of a long wait while the manufacturer shipped parts, we remembered that
this is exactly what it is like to go cruising. Well, at least some
of the time.
Wiring up the watermaker
Tasting "home made" water
Yesterday we tasted "home made" water for the first time. With that
accomplishment behind us, we are beginning to see that there is an end to
the projects. We still have to do a few more small projects, finish
provisioning, and stow everything that we have been keeping at the Georgia
Power office. We expect that it will be a few days before we leave
Brunswick.
