This blog began in late 2006 with the planning and preparation for a circumnavigation of the world in my 39-foot sail boat Pachuca. It then covered a successful 5-year circumnavigation that ended in April 2013. The blog now covers life with Pachuca back home in Australia.

Water Tanks
These are photos that I took during our investigation of possible water tank leaks.
The first two photos are of the starboard tank. Note one of the 4 house batteries at the back.
The next two photos are of the port tank. Behind this tank is another house battery and the water pressure pump and a shower drain bilge pump.
The white sticks are marked at 10 liter intervals and are used to plumb the tanks.
The last photo shows the tinted water that we will be drinking for the next week or so. (Should be OK. We used food coloring.)

The drinking water looks like cordial so should be good.
What colour will your coffee be??
The coffee will be either greenish or redish, depending on which tank we us. ... My big worry is what color our wee wee will be.
Please let us know about the wee wee color.
