Day 61 - Sept 30 – Monday - ELECTRICAL ISSUES !!!



Found a huge issue with the electrical line coming in the boat.. its smoking hot..
Can’t even get the connector apart.  Shut everything down.. started disconnecting..
Dropped the dingy and went over to Skipper’s shop.. they only had 120V 30 amp stuff.. we need 250 volt 50 amp.
Ran over to West marine using Judith’s account (apparently we have one now too!).
Bought new chrome junction box and connector for the cord.. (new cord was $800).
Came back to the boat in darkness and replaced everything.. fired it up and WOW.. all my electrical issues are gone..  Even the ones in the BOAT…
Breaker used to go when you flushed the head.. no more..   Hot water is WAY Hotter..
Awesome!!
Oh ya.. picked up a BBQ and a SUP Board while we were there and discount card in hand!!! Awesome!!!
