A calm night, what a contract from last night! |
We were busy sorting through Obamacare today and it looks
like we'll be okay on costs, we
think... Actually, it's not with a government sponsored health exchange, it's s
private one chosen by IBM. We couldn't
get an appointment for an interview until 12/7, such crowds!
The wind abated here and it was a pleasant day with light
winds, only in the mid teens. I received a holding tank monitoring kit today.
It has a printed circuit board you stick to the holding tank and it measures
the amount of fluid in the tank so you can tell when you have to empty the
tank. Note very exciting but boy is it necessary! My old system stopped working
and I won't tell you about the results... The installation of any such system
is mainly a chore in running sensor lines. You have to connect the tanks sensor
with the readout display at the nav station - lots of threading of electrical
lines through very narrow openings, only took about 2.5 hours to do! And that's
only for one of the two tanks! Somehow, such things do not make the usual
highlights of a cruising experience but
you get the unvarnished truth from me! I have to complete the task on Friday,
hopefully.
Ann's returned to her pastel work but it's not finished
enough for publication, I'll take a photo when she's done. Right now, it's like
being on land, such calmness, welcomed.
