our good friends on Snowbird, got hauled out at Riverside Marina to clean the bottom, check anodes and other maintenance …
they got blocked for a few days making sure everything was good to head across the Gulf Stream, we got a chance to take the rented car to check out another marina, further inland … we are always looking for the best and safest place to leave our homes/boats for the summer
… the next morning Snowbird was being launched and we said your good byes .. it was hard, we met at Annapolis, and have been travelling together for 6 weeks … it is so nice to bouncy off ideas and info with another boater .. see you guys in the Abacos, Bahamas
Joe still doing maintenance to the motor, changing the oil was one of them
we are having an issue with the smell of the head, we found a leak with the macerator hose, fixed that … and next step was to see if the air hose was blocked .. the vent on the bow of the boat was so corroded with salt, and the small vents blocked, know wonder we had an issue … vinegar comes to the rescue … my favourite cleaning product …
our friend Janice Albright, and Mike stocking up for the Bahamas and Cuba … Janice gets the grocery store to hard freeze her meat, and she picks it up the next day, this way of freezing lasts longer… food and supplies are expensive on the islands, you need all paper products, including toilet paper, canned meats, fruit and veggies … Ta Moir is now in the Bahamas enjoying the sun and warmth
