What do you wash in your galley with that salt water?


A lot of sailboats have salt water galley pumps, Harry...'cuz unlike
powerboats, they can get too far from shore to head for the nearest
marine to fill up their water tanks when they run low, making fresh
water conservation necessary...so they rinse dishes, pots and pans in
salt water before washing them. In fact, some foods can even be cooked
in salt water. It's a LOT cleaner 50-1,000 miles offshore than it is in
coastal waters.

You obviously haven't followed the saga of Lloyd's refit!

Uh, no. Lloyd's a great guy, but his approach and methodology to boat
repair and refit is not the path I'd follow.

Poor Lloyd can't catch a break on this one. I won't mention my hull repair
that is a piece of tape. Oops, just mentioned it.

Lloyd does ok, and he's first-rate in my book. I simply prefer a more
professional approach to boat maintenance and repair. He likes to
jury-rig. I don't.

Thanks, Harry

Just for the record: I don't *LIKE* to jury-rig, but I will if I have to.
I wouldn't call my $2000 holding tank "jury-rigged", but I "jury-rigged" a
loading crane by using the main halyard to get the 200-lb burl onboard.
You, on the other hand, prefer to simply buy a new boat.
