Off Duty

I am finally done. As done as I'm going to be for now, i should say. There is always more to do, and every time i visit my little yellow friend, i see wood i missed, and spots of boat sauce where they don't belong. But, alas, I really and truly don't give a rat's tail. I am pleased with the outcome and now I'm ready to enjoy it!

ONE HUNDRED percent LEGAL. First time EVER.

Engine maintenance went well. I changed the oil, air filter, raw water intake impeller, water separator filter, and fuel filter. I even figured out how to bleed the fuel system. Basically, you turn a screw, push a lever, and spray diesel fuel all over the boat, and in your face. Keep doing that until its a straight stream of fuel and no air. Then tighten the screw. Simple.

I think I'm gonna sail to Rock Hall across the bay on Monday and stay all night. I hear from a fellow dirt bag that you can tie up at the marina for free if you eat in the restaurant. How much can a Caesar salad and water cost?

Good point. Maybe I'll just anchor out for FREE.
