Quijote's Fix it Man

We woke this morning to Danny's report that the propane circuit breaker was tripping, so that was the first order of business: replacing the propane solenoid valve. I had to do it once before a couple of years ago, so I'm not sure why it didn't last longer than that. Mark was impressed that I had a spare. Thank goodness I did. It would have been a game changer to lose our stove.

Later in the day Mark leaned against the dodger and tore the stitching out along one side. It all has to be hand stitched to get it back in working order. The Dodger is a necessary system. It keeps us from getting soaked by sea spray while on watch, or any time we're in the cockpit. Quijote, like her owner is showing her age.

So... there has been plenty to do today. Lighter wind too for much of it, so it was a good day to have work to do.
