New fenders with socks placed at cp3 for windy nights against the pontoon, up to you if you want to leave them in place or only use them when night shift is on standby. Boat responds a little differently but I have not found an issue with them and have left them in place. Just remember to push up a little more on fwd spring as the gap between vessel and pontoon is larger with fenders in place
We have had the toilets block up over the last 2 days, stb and center.. I have made up a couple of pool noodle plugs so if you need to plunge either of these toilets you will need to plug the other toilet as they feed into the same line.. I found it just as easy to plug 1 toilet, and using the noodle without the stick in it put the hose into one end, shove the other end into toilet and use water pressure to blow blockage clear.
The fuel senders in both port and stb have been reset as it appears the port gauge was getting out of wack, should be reading true now.
