Log of Alberg 30 #262 on 07 March 2017


Date: 07 March 2017 17:00 till 07 March 2017 18:45
Endpoints: Smith's Marina to Smith's Marina
Purpose: Clean Up and Engine Raw Water
Complement: Jonathan Bresler

  • Vacuumed out the v-berth.
  • Washed down the upper shelf of the head and the hanging locker.
  • Washed down the v-berth. Crazy fine dust. The only way to get it truly clean will be either a tack cloth, after washing, for smaller areas, or lots of water and wiping so that the water and dust flows down into the bilge.
  • Removed the sanitary hose from the engine raw water intake.
  • Tried a couple arrangements of water strainer and engine flush port. Looks like 1/2" full flow fitting on the intake valve and the inlet side of the strainer, combined with a 1/2" elbow on the outlet side of the strainer connecting to the engine flush port may be the way to go.
  • Removed the stock navigation lights from the cabin sides.
