No sailing today; most marinas require you to motor out, and there's no working motor.
Went to West Marine and put a 20-gallon holding tank on hold. The head (toilet) should have 20 gallons of drainage at least, before marinas will consider it adequate for living aboard. These are clearly people who have much nicer throne-rooms than I do; I use the shore facilities whenever I can.
Mugsy came and pumped out the overflowing 13-gallon holding tank already in place. It was fine until Dan decided to pump plenty of seawater through in the hope of cutting the smell ... instead it decided to spread itself out and get comfortable. It will take some work to clean up all the gaskets and puddles. Boats have more crannies, I swear.
I made lots of shopping lists: things to get from marine shops, things to bring from the house, things to buy at landlubberly stores, etc. Lots of lists.
