Checking in During Winter Storage

 Not much to say here.  

Throughout the winter, I stopped by Rock Hall to check in on Seas The Day on most weeks.  These visits are basically a quick trip down and a brief check on-board to be sure everything is OK.  It usually was.  

Here are a few of the photos.



Checking to ensure the switches are still set the same way, the battery charger is on and the bilge is OK.








On the one weekend where there was snow, I opted not to go aboard... just checked the dock lines and used a current sensor to ensure the battery charger was still on.













I noticed that the winter storms were beginning to take their toll on the dock line, but she was double-tied, so I just made a note to get a new one ready.



Still holding... but blowing too strongly to attempt a replacement this visit.


Also noted some pitting on the plate supporting this cleat.

Finally on the last visit of the off-season, I noticed the canvas was reinstalled by the yard.  Tomorrow is April 15!  That is tax day, but also the official start of the season (and when water gets turned back on).
