Snowmagedden approaches!

Smowmagedden approaches!  We are due for a major snow event tomorrow, bigger than the one last weekend!!

I totally stole this from someone's facebook post

This whole last week I've been running my water at night to keep the hose from freezing and heating the intake valve where the water comes into the boat.  So far so good, but today I learned that the marina is going to turn off the water tomorrow and most likely keep it off for the duration, potentially into Tuesday.  Besides the long shower I will take tonight, and the last load or so of laundry, there is more I can do to prepare.

Turns out I have a fresh water tank in the hull.  I even have nifty knobs to turn that are labeled, water from the dock, water from the tanks, and how to fill the tanks.  The thing is, there is no gauge so I'm not comfortable just turning on the water into the tanks, and I really don't know how long the water had been in there.

So adventure tonight, got myself into the hull and checked out the tank.  Looks like there are two but it's not easy to tell.  I turned the nobs and ran the shower/sink to drain the existing water.  That seemed to work ok so I filled them back up.  Only took about 20 mins so either they're not as big as I thought or I have really good water pressure!

Water controls but no gauge!

Update: It's the next day and we couldn't get the hose disconnected so I turned off the water coming into my house and we turned off the hose connection as best we could.
