Thanks to everyone for their comments. Really good morale boosting to read them just before we “set” the first night watch.

Stephanie Esposito and JHam: Thank you for your kind offers to help with the LED for the compass. It actually seems like JHam’s idea to yell at the gremlins has worked. The second LED has come back on line. My moving the broken insulation may have had something to do with it too, but I’m sure the yelling was the more important part.

So, I’ll wait on trying to order a replacement and see if when we’re at anchor I can make a more permanent fix to the insulation. Funny how it didn’t work when I actually worked on it, but two nights later. Oh well, I’m not complaining.
