22 November, 2019 Kingfisher Bay Marina

WALMART, Oreillys and RAIN
Quiet day, up too early; was wide awake at 0300.  Got up at 0500 and made coffee.  We had the courtesy car reserved at 0800 and off we went to Walmart.  Forgot to get the boat engine oil, turned around and went to Oreillys.

8 liters into the Yanmar.  Started up and check for water leaks around raw water strainer, fuel leaks around the Racor fuel filter and general engine health.  All good for planned departure tomorrow morning.

Emptied composting toilet and refiled solids bin with new compost.  Reconstituted a new coco coir brick in the 5 gallon plastic bucket.  Inspected steering from helm to rudder post.  Good to go.  Cleaned up helm area, repacked tools and equipment and made ready.

Filled water tank with fresh water.  Added bio guard to each diesel tank to prevent crud growth.

POC stowed groceries and did our laundry.  Showers have been appreciated.

Spent a couple of hours at chart study and planning future anchorages.  Have the plan, completed float plan and emailed to my son, all depends on weather, locks and how many tows we encounter.

Nice marina, not too fancy, but friendly and well kept and maintained.  Marina manager runs a tight ship.
