Cleaning the Dinghy

This morning we dinghied ashore and walked south about a mile to the Office of Tourism. We heard they have wifi!Not only that but comfy chairs and air conditioning! We spent a few hours there and then walked north to Sou'side Bar and Grill, an outdoor bar that also had wifi. We ordered lunch and did a few more things online. Those two places appear to be the only ones in Salt Pond with wifi. That is ok, we like it here anyway. After eating lobster burgers we went to the liquor store/post office and bought stamps, then next door to Hillside Food Supply for some fresh vegetables. We returned to Breeze On and decided to take Chuggernaut to Cruisers's Beach to empty the little bit of water, clean the bottom and check for leaks. The first photo shows the items built by and contributed by cruisers in the area where they gather (George thinks it needs a Pepsi sign). We haven't gathered there with anyone yet, but there is still time. The second photo shows George letting the water d
rain out of the dinghy. After that held the dinghy up while I used a soft brush to clean the bottom. Then, we switched roles. We checked for leaks along the seams using a spray bottle filled with soapy water. Fortunately, we didn't find any.
