Recently the wife and I checked out the boat--the first time in a couple of weeks. Everything seemed fine until I noticed burn marks on the microwave and the wood trim above it. At first we thought somehow it had shorted but we had all the battery switches turned off and the boat was not plugged in. It was then I noticed a reflection moving across the area. On our previous visit on the boat we had left a hand held mirror in the sink. The reflection of the sun through the front windshield had focused on the burned area day after day [hard to believe there was enough sun considering the spring we had in the northwest]. Fortunatly the boat is is moored and because of the rocking motion it did not have a chance to focus too long in one spot.
