As we continue South and wait out the final weeks of hurricane season we tick off some boat jobs to keep Happy Days ship-shape! We change the turnbuckle on our seagull striker to complete the rigging in it’s entirety, or in other words – to please the insurers. Then there’s a secondary fuel filter to be changed and some caulking in the showers.
But we’ve sprung a leak! An o-ring on our 2-inch ‘holding tank out’ Marelon ball valve desperately needs to be done in a hurry as it spews water in to the boat every time it gets opened.
Once all the jobs are ticked off we head for a run around the block – Block Island, but it’s a a bit further than first expected and it turns in to a full on adventure.
Join us next time as we pick some grapes at North Fork, sail right through New York City and explore Chesapeake Bay. we even get a cheeky kite session at Fort Monroe.
