Turkey Day and Beyond

We had a good Thanksgiving and hope you all did too.  Last night we came back to the boat about 5:30 and turned the generator on so we could heat up our leftover turkey dinner.  After dinner we continued playing our ongoing game of Uno,  (I am winning and the Captain is not very happy with that', turns out he wasn't paying attention to the rules and let a lot of chances get by him) and then it was time to turn off the generator and switch to the inverter.  When, low and behold, the inverter we purchased two months ago and have used for two weeks, CRASHED!!!!  Can you believe this?  I am having a hard time adjusting to the daily dose of drama. I just never knew boating could be this much fun! 
Cory says our boat reminds him of the movie "The Money Pit", we are tending to agree more and more each day.
So now we are living like semi blow-boaters and stowing the frig stuff in the cooler and using the generator just to keep the batteries alive.  Of course everything is shut down for the "holiday weekend" so we have to wait until Monday to figure out how this will pan out. 
Stay tuned.....

  1. Sorry about the trouble with the inverter....it's always something with a boat! We will even forgive you this time for the disparaging reference to the "blow boaters".

    Glad you had a great Thanksgiving!
