Creature comforts

Well there were a few small things added to the boat that have nothing to do with sailing, but more comfort while in the slip. We had to have the table lowered constantly for the TV to sit on and I wanted more flexibility, so the TV got mounted on the starboard side galley wall. We don't watch a lot of TV, but on a rainy day we do enjoy watching movies. (thank you Redbox)

The second addition to the boat came from the scratch & dent isle at Home Depot. We need to eventually buy a propane stove to replace the alcohol stove that came with the boat. Well in the meantime it was the perfect spot to put a refrigerator. I hurt my back at work so I was dependent on a few friends for help, but it got done.

While these to things don't add anything to our sailing trip, they do make the boat more livable while here and getting ready. The refrigerator will end up going but the TV might stay since it runs on 12v and is LED with less electric draw.. Who knows we might want to watch TV while anchored somewhere nice on a rainy day.
