Good news Bad news

The good news is she floats and many systems work fine. The bad news is that the engine, bilge pumping, freshwater and heating systems are not ready to go. Tomorrow we will take a closer look and see what it will take to get underway.

This is what cruising is all about!

Tentative Boojum punch list:

Replace head faucet/shower handle
Bilge pumps - saloon inop, check others
Sink drain blockage/leaking
Engine sucking air?
Verify manual and engine bilge pumps
Hand freshwater pump loses prime
Wallas Heater inop - M error - glow plug?
Day tank tank-tender inop
Secure Liferaft
Secure dinghy spars and oars
Test windlass
Top up steering hydraulic fluid
