Up at 6:30, breakfast, bible reading then stuff to do.
Reneé left for haircut, I updated the blog, then the dishes got done. After she got back. I ordered the parts. Situation is that shipping into Mexico is difficult at best. We are going to be in Puerto Peñasco in a week. Where we will have access to our truck and we can drive to the border if needed. So, shipping these parts to a place north of the border is an idea. There is a Gastrak service station that accepts mail, the way it works, they have a charge for the delivery and a weekly rate for holding it. BUT the US postal service will not deliver mail to them. So, it has to UPS or FedEx. In any case, it is ordered and UPS to the Gastrak. We will be there about 4/5 and the package is supposed to arrive about 4/4. This should work.
I went to work on the stern light. I turned it on, and it worked. That was easy!
Then checked the wash down pump. The hose had two hose clamps on it (normal on a boat) the outer one was broken, the inner one was not in good shape. I replaced both. No more leak.
