So I'm dogsitting at a friends place and will be for the rest of the week - and I went over to check on the boat and pick up a few items. The boat flooded.
There's about 3 inches of water on the floor 1/2 way along the cabin sole. I turned off the power since the bilge pump was flooded, pumped out some water and tried to sort out what to do. This is after I ran out of gas this morning as well, so it's been a hell of a day.
I'm glad I have the cat here with me, he was not alone as the water poured in - but I'm not looking forward to the cleanup and the rain is still coming down. I cleared the drains and pumped out the cockpit and hopefully there won't be a repeat of the flood.
But the carpet is dead, I need to replace some power strips and probably the bilge pump as well. And I can't do anything about it tomorrow, I have to drive to Portland for a medical appt. I will go by and check on it of course, but I can't deal with it tomorrow the drive and the appt will be more than enough to take my spoons.
