Day 288 Entry 062
Actual Date:  January 27, 2014 Monday    
Weather:   Cold. Cold. Cold.  But no snow!   Temperature dropped to 52 degrees and the wind gusted to 30 mph.  But it is warmer here than most places in the country!
Housekeeping Aboard S/v YOLO  Non Automatic Clothes Washer  Part 6

One had a water pump and one did not!  I never heard of a washer that didn't have a water pump.  How is the water emptied with out a water pump?  I didn't even take the time to find out!  I made my decision:  the Panda electric non automatic with water pump clothes washer and spinner combo was for YOLO and me.
Most of these non automatic clothes washers are made by non US companies.  Now to find a US distributor.   I was able to locate 2 distributors.  Now would the delivery charge be more that the actual washer.
After showing Captain Steve my find, it was his job to figure out if the electricity/ generator/ batteries would support my new appliance and how!
Well we measured the shower stall and found that 2 of the combo models would fit. 
Sea u later.
