Went to go for a swim. Just before jumping in, Nellie showed up. She's very patient. Normally Nurse sharks are relatively gentle. But in The Bahamas they often feed them for the tourists. So some Nurse sharks now associate humans with food, making them much more unpredictable. Still wanna swim? lol

I am still trying to diagnose the issue with a lack of water running through the engine. I took the cover off the impeller (water pump) just to eliminate that as a cause. It looks fine. So, based on on my gathered intel, I am now assuming that the problem is a blocked intake (thru-hull) under the boat. That means that I need to go for a swim at some point soon. The temperature of the water is now 44 degrees. 🥶 Restoring this old sailboat is continuing my education on marine mechanics. Love it!
