Engineering Report

The water meter readings are no longer super useful as are bypassing the pump. Although I will report that we had a record low usage due to the constraints of our water issue. A new pump is on the way so we will await its arrival. I suppose the silver lining here is that the commander got a good night’s sleep.

See attached photos for our attempted surgery/resurrection of the pump.

The 7th stateroom is nearing completion. It is able to support human.

See commander report for more.

I worked on an Engineering handoff checklist, which I have also attached. Hopefully, this will make the crew transitions run even more smoothly. Please feel free to provide comments/suggestions.

Diesel: 30%

Propane: 80%

Water: 22.5/40in

Water meter: 89067.8

Water usage/person: 12.27L

Morale: We can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Weariness: I think at this point it’s less about the

weariness than it is about our smelliness. What’s three more days of no showering?

Tony: Tony got a good night’s sleep in an actual

stateroom last night. Today, he sang to us in Portuguese. Tomorrow is anyone’s guess.
