Sailboat electrical repair, solar panels and biminis on our Catalina 22
Ep. 21 ~ In this episode, we fix some electrical issues, solar panel issues, we install our new bimini and try to set up a 6th line to tie our boat to a piling. That last project didn't go well, thanks to the millions of oyster shells on the piling, so we remove our line and will regroup for a later time.
