Overcast. SW: 10-15 Kts.

First sea trial for the new (old) prop. Very smooth with no shimmy or vibration.

Anchored at Chatham and did some minor maintenance including bleaching the cabin walls and removing the old dodger anchors from the deck. Now the jib sheets won't get caught up in them anymore. Don't know that I'll ever replace the dodger.

New heater is working great. I want to find a 10 lb. propane tank that will fit in my tank well. Dimensions are 10"x10.5" x 14.75". That way I can use the 5 lb tank for heater and future bar-b-que.
