Set Back... the first serious one so far...

We are going to stay put and dry in Pasadena for a while longer:  10 of our thru-hull valves are leaking... out of 12 for the sanitary plumbing... we still have to check on the intake valves and the other thru-hulls (engine / generator / a/c).... not promising... we therefore have to replace them which entails removing & replacing the thru-hull fittings/skins; the bronze 90deg elbows; the ball valves, and the hose adapters.
