I made my first banana bread on the boat using a silicone pan. It cooked wonderfully, fast and it turned out pretty good!
We splashed yesterday morning. We are at Oak Harbor Marina in Slidell. We had water come into the boat on our way to the marina. We are not exactly sure what caused all the water to come in - it may have been a loose fitting on the engine exhaust or the bilge pump discharge syphoning water back into the boat due to our transom being so low in the water. We had to manually pump out just over 10 gallons of water from our bilge plus whatever the auto bilge pumped out from the engine room. The auto bilge would have kept the water in the engine room bilge but I had stupidly forgotten to turn the bilge pump back to auto after I switched it to manual. I was glad to experience this while so close to land and on a lake rather than offshore.Brett has caught what I have and we are both sick.

We'll be staying here till Thursday (at $50 a night!!) and then we'll hopefully be able to anchor out at Rabbit Island before heading toward Biloxi, MS.
