We were ready to leave the anchorage we had been in for four nights but the wind was blowing out of the southeast about 15 knots. We decided to stay another day rather than deal with rough seas in Chesapeake Bay.
I finished fabricating a mount for a 12 volt computer fan. When I figure out where to pick up 12 volt power, I plan to install it to draw hot air from behind the refrigerator and freezer so that these appliances won’t have to run as often or as long which, in turn, should reduce battery consumption. The fan only draws 0.5 amps.
A crab fisherman was checking one of his traps near our boat. I called out to him and asked if he would sell us a dozen crabs. He counted out 13 large crabs and wouldn’t accept any money for them no matter how much we protested. We immediately steamed the crabs and iced them down. Dora made Cole slaw and we picked the crabs for dinner on the aft deck.
