Well we have the motor fixed...yay
Cost a small fortune, but at least it works.
I have spend most of the day trying to keep out of everyone's way, it's not easy as no matter where I am on the boat someone needs to get past or wants to do something right where I am...grrr
I sewed myself another dress and did some mending of other clothes, that I have changed or adjusted, as I'm only hand sewing they fall apart quick....lol
Then decided to cook Chilli Cheese fries, my girls, home made ones are so, so much better than the ones we had in Old Town San Diego.
Only the mess to clean up after was shocking.
Tom has almost finished fixing the boom, he has had a hard time drilling holes in the stainless steal bracket, with many visits back and forth to the local hardware shop to buy mire drill bits and stuff.
It looks like it should be all fixed tomorrow afternoon,
Then we will set off again early Monday morning.
The captain has been busy trying to work out how the hell are we going to afford to get everything fixed on this boat, man I don't envy him, as every day we have to fork out more money.....so much for the sailing life being cheap.....huh
But we will get there once we get on top of all the much needed repairs.
Well tomorrow is another day.
