Found the inverter alarm sounding and the house batteries discharged when we awoke this morning. We may need to replace the six golf cart batteries that serve as our house bank. They are 39 months old and should still be good but they shouldn’t have discharged over night with only the refrigerator and freezer running.
Started the generator about 1100 to charge the batteries for a while. As soon as it started the belt to the raw water pump began squealing loudly as if the pump had seized. I pulled the pump and checked it’s bearings and impeller. Both looked OK but I replaced the impeller anyway. I reinstalled the pump and a new belt. One or the other seemed to solve the problem.
Dora’s nephew Nelson Jr., his wife Laura and six month old son Patrick came from Fayetteville NC to see us. We had lunch on Seascape and Dora had a great time playing with Patrick.
Barry Ainsworth saved me again. He fixed our blog site, although it seems that we have lost the pictures. I’ll try to include more the next time I can get on the internet.
