Sun Shower

We have not moved Breeze On for a week and our hot water tank is out of hot water. The water is heated in one of two ways: from the engine, or from an element that works when we are plugged into shore power. The hot water lasts about two days. This year we purchased a sun shower to give us hot water when we have been at anchor more than two days. We keep it tied on the deck most of the time then hang it from the arch when we want to use it to rinse off after our salt water bath. As long as the sun is shining it works really well. 

This morning I attended an aqua fitness class in the water at the beach. It was good exercise and fun. Diane, from Boatel I, arrived in the anchorage yesterday and announced the class this morning on the net. There were just three of us there, Diane, her husband, Ted, and me. We plan to round out our “busy” day by going to a cruisers’ happy hour at Tiny’s Hurricane Hole later this afternoon. 

We hadn’t intended to stay at Long Island more than a week but we are expecting one strong cold front in a few days and then possibly another one next week. We have run all sorts of possible scenarios on where to go and when. We just have to be flexible!
