Haircut day
Today Mark and “the lads” got haircuts. The barber shop at the Marina attaches numbers to the length of the haircuts with 1 being the shortest.
As you can see, they tried to save on remembering large numbers. They don’t look too happy about it.
Mark has shown us what happens when occupants of the boat have long hair (Molly and Kendall both have long hair). First, it gets caught on things. The clips that hold the sunshade and the bimini (the cover over the cockpit) are natural hair magnets. They not only attract the hair, they grab it and pluck it.
Second, the boat has a natural circulation of anything that falls on the floor. It eventually gets washed into the bilge and into the strainers that cover the drains to the pumps that push any bilge water to the sea. One example is the shower. It is in the same room as the head (toilet) much like a camper. When a person showers, the water (and hair) goes into the bilge and gets pumped into the sea. Long haired people leave a trail behind in the bilge pump strainers.
These three skin-heads will not leave a trail at least until we at sea for several weeks.
