PCR test done this morning at 1100, very thorough swab
up the nose and down the throat. We hope to get result back today but some think
will be tomorrow. Not good as Marina office closed over the weekend and there is
a holiday here Monday so closed. Just wait and see.
Mast rigging check nothing new on the inspection so good
to go.
Access made to area under cooker that leaks water to the
floor. It was totally dry in there but you can see where water does pool. Will
monitor the area on trip north. Area cleaned up and will put door on the access
as good storage space available. Do need to make another hole but require a hole
saw so can put access hatch in to where fridge body is to see if the drain is
leaking as the drain tubing does not naturally drain down as has a kink so water
can pool and cause pressure on a connection that is not to see any pressure with
unintended consequences of water on cabin sole going around engine and absorbing
some in the sound foam.
Heads given a clean, mildew on the ceiling and
disinfected all around.
Water tank filled. We did not go on to the 2nd one
during the trip and ran the 1st to empty to see how much left, estimate about 20
litres, therefore just 80 litres used. Next leg I don't plan to be so frugal
with water usage for cleaning.
Engine checks completed.
It was freezing here this morning we had to put fleeces
on to keep warm, pleasant again now.
Last night had delivery of food from the restaurant
across from us about 100 meters away. If still in quarantine tonight will get
another delivery over the gate of the pontoon.
