Day 18

Grant was up until 2:00 AM last night downloading the charts necessary for our next leg of the trip. Because of that we did not get up until 8:30 and had no ambition to get moving. We still had the rental car and had to take that back plus stop off at Walmart for a few items… The wind was picking up and the head (toilet) has not been working properly so we decided to stay another day so Grant could try to fix the problem. Good thing we stayed because it ends up the toilet paper we had been using was not as quickly biodegradable as we thought, and was clogging up the lines. Grant had to go in the crawl space at the bottom of the boat to the holding take and take it all apart to remove the blockage… That was a shit job, no pun intended!

While Grant was fixing the boat, Tabbie decided it was a good day to take a run through town……..
