Good Monday

Susan said I sounded a bit down in my last post, which I was. Having two target dates come and go with only more issues to resolve before we can leave was definitely a bummer. But the truth is, we're living on a boat sitting at a very nice marina with great people around us. Everyone should have it so rough.

Today was a good day for making progress. Susan picked up the spear gun she had taken in for repair. That should help with providing dinner once we get to the islands.  Our new mainsail was delivered to the local Quantum Sail shop. We (along with Quantum) were going to install it today but the wind was up this afternoon so we postponed it until first thing tomorrow morning.  That timing worked well as only a few minutes after making that decision I got a call that Y.E.S. was on their way to install the new forward air conditioner. What a bonanza! Tonight we have two working air conditioning units! There is still some sort of an issue with running them both at the same time but I have another thing to try on resolving that issue. The only major thing left is the diesel generator. Before the week is out a mechanic will be here to look at it.

I'm sticking with my decision not to make any more predictions on a date we'll be leaving but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.  It's getting close!

Take care.
Brian
