The entire Trawler then needed washing, as the shifted deposits left stains from the mucky water.
Sad bit is it's going to rain.

It is a marine stereo and speakers, on, TandEadapts Flybridge, which promises durability in all weather and water resistance. However, the reality of the suns oppression here means within a year we would see discolouring, cracks and possibly malfunctions from overheating.
While these covers were being made, I used plastic bags to guard them, with red or blue tape. Thank you, Francisco, they're looking good. 32 degrees at 9:00am and the fans on TandEadapt stop running. Alerted, I checked the lower cabins to see the electricity was not running on the entire trawler.
The battery meter was indicating rapid powerdraining, which I determined was coming from the instruments and pumps. What could I do? The batteries would soon be drained too low to be recharged. How is this possible? If the battery meter shows the batter Voltage drops lower the 12.5 on the 12V batteries they will most likely be incapable of recharging. They'd run flat and die. My batteries are usually reading input between 13.5v and 14.5v. But we're dropping and after 5 minutes I could see the rate of power loss was going kill them while I was on board. At Anchor: The engine would need to be started in order to top up the batteries before they lose too much power to start the engine when you're ready to leave. TandEadapt, has an optional 40amp, charger beside the normal 10 amp charger, which can be used to top up the batteries more quickly. Leaving the yacht is not a problem when the batteries are switched off and there is current keeping them charged. However, this morning the marina was doing maintenance and the mains power was disconnected for an hour, while I was using battery powered systems on board. So I turned the engines on. The weather has been thunder and rain for the last few days in, Alicante. Forecasts now read sunny for the duration of the week. However, the rains carry dust from the African coast and TabdEadapt was left rather red. Up at 07:00 GMT+1 , was an hour on the decks with a sponge and proper washing material, to bring the trawler back from red, with abashment. Even removed a few more of the smears on the side deck top sides. Now that ain't, Insouciant Compulsive Disorder.
The bridge makes a good drying room. The laundry services on the marina aren't good enough for my whites.
Gas is currently disconnected due to idiosyncratic circumstances. The galley has a gas oven and 4 hub stove, however, I'm using a Pan, with an external electric cooker.
The primary reason is: No gas alarm. The second reason is: Its easy, and cheap. This cook book has some interesting recipes for anyone with similar thinking on their boat. TandEadapt, will have alarms fitted when she's coded for research and charter work, later this year. Until then, we Pan on. Liz Mitchell, arrived in, Alicante, last Friday, 31st June and met me to host an interview on the Flybridge of, TandEadapt.
Liz, was in an elated mood seeing the trawler and I in good condition. I had suffered a mild heart attack a fortnight before. She had been unable to travel earlier and felt concern. She had concerts in, Canada, the previous weeks, which she had to complete. On the list of discussed subjects was my latest book, The Curse of The Spider. I found the ethos of the night bizzarly amiable. Though the promise of fire works was uneventfully changed. A link to the interview is above. Changed the Battery on the Z4 today. I've used a gel, electric tape: Star Brite. However not white and bright. This stuff leaves the connector black. Not the simplest installation but the car started first time, once it was installed.
Did you know BMW was the acronym for, Bavaria Motor Works? |
