The winds were under 20kts, the rain was intermittent, and the temperature was approaching 50°F. No more excuses, we went feet wet at 8:30AM. The engine started right up. There was dramatically less exhaust smoke as compared to last year. Thank you new injector pump and new injectors.
The dinghy, which wintered on the O2 deck, was winched down and its engine attached. The 15HP Yamaha started reluctantly but then ran well. The dink is back on the davits.
The 35 lb CQR was traded out for the 80 lb Babeth. More rock anchorages than mud anchorages are in Nellie's immediate future.
The water tanks were filled and the water lines pressurized. No leaks. The hotwater tank is working too.
Tomorrow, seas trials.
