STORM WRECKS HAVOC! Snapped lines & leaks are what's on tap during this spring storm. 4/12/2024.

Aprils showers brings....in this case; a mess. We had several leaks on board Valkyrie during a big wind & rain storm while docked in New Bedford Harbor. Thankfully Fleet Marina's docks are solid which offers a lot of comfort. Unfortunately there are a few boats that had their lines snap during this and other storms causing fear that they would hit us. Mark was able to spring to action to assist the fishing vessels. Valkyrie's leaks are not new to us, but not every rain event equals leaks. This storm however did.
In other news... April was not all storms and leaks. We went to Vermont to witness the Solar Eclipse which was a lot of fun. At totality it got very cold out, the mosquitos started biting and in a few short minutes, the birds started chirping and it was warm again.
Thanks for watching. Stay tuned because soon we will be moving to our summer home and our weekends will be loaded with cruising and anchoring at our favorite anchorages in Buzzards Bay.
