We made some progress today in the repair yard. The Alternator was removed and bench tested and found to be okay. The pigtail to the alternator will be replaced and we should be operational again. They found two through-hull valves that will be replaced and the remaining through-hull valves have been lubricated. The valves are on order and should be here by Wednesday.
We made a number of calls today regarding transient space and fuel cost and made a number of changes in the float plan. We eliminated the Suwanee River from the plan. We learned from a few phone calls that the river is too shallow and cannot support more than 3 ft. draft. Fuel prices were generally around $2.20/gal. but Clearwater City Marina was $1.73/gal. with a Boat US card.
