Things are winding down here at Vero - this should be our last day here.
While we were out with the loaner car, we picked up a couple of white buckets from Ace Hardware. We need to make new "Lookie Buckets"....because we think we left ours in the storage trailer at Oriental. We vaguely recall removing them from the boat during the summer to get them out of the way. Well, that didn't work out too well, did it?
Any-who.....same drill as before.
Get a couple of sheets of clear lexan from Lowe's. Cut a big circle.
Then trace a slightly smaller circle on the bottom of the 5 gallon bucket.
Borrow the jigsaw from Dean and Kris. (Always nice to have neighboring boats with tools!)
Should be a good view down to check on coral in a week or two!
We were treated to another pleasant but chilly sunset. Kris and Dean invited us over for tacos (well - it was Taco-Tuesday ya'know. )
We'll part ways for a while with Charm - they'll shove off the raft-up first thing in the morning. Hope to meet up with them again in the Ragged's after their Christmas company departs from Nassau.
We are going to get our Covid tests and shove off south as well later in the morning.
Thanks for the DIY photos of your Lookie Bucket.
ReplyDeleteWe usually only think of this once we’re on the dinghy and need one.
I’ll definitely add this to our shopping list so we can make one too.
Have a great sail south.
