On a side note tell yourself this is the f***k of the trip just to remind you that things happen and from now on everything will be fine. Last year we prepared our first 1 month trip aboard, things went wrong from the beginning, from health issues in the family to boat issue, but finally we spent 3 wonderful weeks in place of a month and still we really enjoyed.
At least issue happened at the beginning, better than in the middle of a trip, just keep positive

Similar to what I said to the missus. This is just stuff and why we have insurance. Though I doubt we will have to use ours.

I just don't know what the issues are when turning off gas powered water heaters. Probably doable, but not something we had have to do any time in the past when taking trips.

Leads into a much bigger conversation about when your cruising plans are large enough that you need to consider disposing of the dirt house you have!
