Sunday morning April 22nd

This was a welcome site after the events last night. The seas where about 6ft ,very close together and broad siding us as well as raining. Oh ya , our raw water that cools the engine stopped working at 3am so Joe tried to fix it. In the rough weather but just couldn't find what was wrong. When the sun came up around 6am the seas and winds died down. We started working on the engine raw water pump[not easy to get to the impeller].It  was fine and water coming into the boat checked out ok. The belt was loose and I  removed each hose coming from pump, banged on the heat exchangers starting engines each time.Finaaly it started working-oh ya -now its around 8am 5 more hours to inlet.
Motor sailed in-all is well arriving a 3 pm in Little River instead of 11 am-but great trip with challenges,adventure,and arrived safely ahead of colder weather.Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!Back at or home dock for a few months of local sailing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
