Freezer in! Onto more fun jobs

WE HAVE ICE CUBES! It took about 3 days to install the new freezer and it’s doing a great job chilling our water – can’t have a dark and stormy without ice 😉. This job went fairly smoothly with only a few minor cuts.

Mark has now begun work on installing our new replacement water tank (a flexible drink water tank). Last summer our port water tank got contaminated from a small chemical spill in the storage space near it. The tank already had a leak and with the contamination, we had no choice but to replace the tank with a new rubber bladder style tank. Mark has been cutting, hacking, drilling etc inside the old tank to make room for the new one and to add another storage compartment (because this boat just doesn’t have enough storage space😳. Well can you ever have enough storage space!)

This job is much harder and complicated than the freezer but Mark is doing great! The tank is going in today and we should be able to connect it up tomorrow. 

The best thing about all these boat jobs – I get some of the most interesting photos!!

Man what was I thinking!? It’ll never fit😊

Hello in there! Job starts with a thorough tank examination.

Working below the floor in a very small space is no fun!
Not happy? No just caught before the tongue came out😁

I thought you might like to see where we’re staying – Soverel Harbour Marina in Palm Beach Gardens.

This is the main entrance from the Intracoastal Waterway.
Condos on the north side of the Marina.
We’re heading into low tide, that’s why we look so low .
Just hanging out by ourselves. We had neighbours on both sides but they left yesterday and today.
