Staying clean

Our boat has a Splendide washer/dryer built into the starboard vee berth.  It is not a large machine, it handles about 2 cubic feet of wash.  So doing a sheet, pillow case and a couple of tee shirts can be washed and dried.  That is when you are at dock and have 30amp 110 power it will work.  We are working on being able to use it off our new battery bank with just washing and then will dry outside on the life lines.

At least that was the plan until the unit stopped the other day.  We were working on our new invertor and probably had something to do with it stopping.  Worked through the options and it looks like it was just a surge protector that did it's job.  That sounds like a simple project but getting the unit out of its spot, turning it 180s, all in the vee berth made it more than just simple.  In the end we ordered the part and should be able to get it back together within a week.
