This morning we walked to Arc Battery and purchased a new Lifeline starter battery and an Odyssey battery for the windlass, plus a Pulsetech battery pulser. We walked back to the boat after a brief stop at the grocery store, Mollie Stones'.
Rich removed the existing starter and windlass batteries. Al, of Arc Battery delivered the new batteries and took away the old ones, for a modest fee. Rich installed the new batteries and put the pulser on the windlass battery as we already have a pulser for the house batteries. Once they were installed he started up the engine with no problem. We disconnected the power and tried it a few more times, each with success. It was time to leave the dock.
We are now anchored in Richardson Bay, just off of Sausalito across from the Taj Mahal which I mentioned earlier. I will post a picture when I get a chance. This evening we have a gorgeous view of San Francisco and the Bay Bridge.
It is a little shallow here so we might touch bottom at low tide at 7:00 am in the morning.
Our plan is to head for Horseshoe Bay, closer to the north end of the Golden Gate Bridge. We will soon be bidding farewell to San Francisco.
Less worries
