You may want to check on the diesel. Fuel in containers are prohibited on the WA State Ferry, Alaska may be different, but ask. Since you won't need it on the Ferry, ask about an empty can as well. Also, consider just leaving the fridge empty. There are friends at JBER and stores in Bellingham. Just a thought. When you do turn it on it will take hours to get to operating temperature. I have never timed it, but we run ours on electric for 24 hours or more before loading it when we are packing to leave.
Thanks Tee Jay,
You make a great point. Leave the food behind and buy more later. Everytime we have a change in duty station (PCS), we basically do just that, pass along all the extras to our comrades and family. We'll hang on to a few bottles of wine, maybe a six pack and make some snacks, and the rest we'll just enjoy the ferry conviences and pretend we're on a cruise!
I will ask the ferry admin about the fuel tomorrow when I call.
Thanks again!
