A Good Blow; Not yet

We had a lot of excitement yesterday when small craft advisories were posted for the area. The SSE wind built a big chop early in the day, and by afternoon the swells were making their way deep into the marina. Combined with the wind it was quite a ride. Toward nightfall the wind kept building but slowly backed to the SSW, putting us on the lee side of the land, which quickly calmed the water around us. After midnight the big gusts arrived, maybe in the low thirties, pushing the rigging and holding us to a starboard tack while tied to the dock. What fun to lay in the dark, listening to the wind and feeling the boat respond like a living thing. I love it.

Well, I still have a problem with the heater. Same problem. It’s randomly tripping the 10 amp breaker on the Surewire board. Unfortunately the breaker isn’t labeled and so far the techs at Sure Marine (the people who actually make the board) can’t tell me what the breaker is trying to protect.

Without that info, I can’t fix the problem. They say they will call as soon as they figure it out.
