I went over to the boat on Saturday to install a new bilge pump. The winds were howling over there, and the boat was heeling in the slip. The new pump is a flexible vane type (Water Puppy), which worked perfectly once it was wired in and hooked up to the bilge hose. It's quiet too. Almost too quiet, as I won't be able to hear it running from on deck, which is how I used to keep track of any excess water coming aboard.
No ice in the river yet, it's been way too mild here for that. Maybe we can get through the winter without the de-icer.
The new compass oil should be arriving at my office today, according to the UPS tracking system.
