Subject: Damage Control!
Once we got
back into the channel. I went
below. The damage wasn’t so bad – items
shifted in the cabinets. But the cabinet latched held. But when I opened the spice cabinet they came
tumbling out, but none of the containers were broken. I guess I will have to find a new place for
the spices. I looked in the refrigerator
and it looked like some one just dumped food in there. It was so organized - now its a mess. I didn't think anything broken. So I just closed the lid and will deal with it
later. I latched all the draws to keep
them from opening and they all held. The
latch on one of the draws was fine before but now it is misaligned. The pressure from the draw moved the eye on
the draw so it does not line up as well as before. I will
have to put that on Captain Steve’s list.
The salon
TV and DVD player are in a cubby, held in place with a framed panel bolted to
the wall. Three speakers are screwed to
the panel. Well thankfully the panel was
still intact even though the TV shifted and the DVD player was pushed forward
up against the panel. Only on of the
speakers was still hanging on the panel the other 2 were on the floor but still
intact. Another item for Captain Steve.
The stern
bedroom was in good shape. When ever we
move the boat I always put the flat screen TV; laptops; fan and lamps on the
bed. So they were in good shape. Some of the books were knocked off the
shelf. But thankfully as far as I could
tell no real damage was done. But
Captain Steve hadn’t checked the engine; generator or bilge yet.
Sea you
later! Engine room damage control!
