Back to
N23
 We tidied Beez and kept busy waiting
for slack tide at two o’clock ready for the short journey back to our buoy.
Time to turn the engine on, sweet request to
my ears, aye aye captain. I turn the key one move to the right to illuminate the
glow plugs, count to eight, turn further and nothing, nadda, nunca.
Beaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr. Some bad words are heard floating on the air from
downstairs. Now try. Lovely. Turn off and try again. Nothing. OK give me a second......... Try now. Beez once again throws herself to her task.
The engine battery was not playing nicely so Bear had to move the engine starter
temporarily onto one of the house batteries. Another job on the skippers list to
sort out then. For now, covers back on and lunch.
 2015 sailing mileage began today with
Beez doing 0.67 nm with 3594 nautical miles left this
year to Sydney Harbour.
ALL IN ALL
WONDERFUL TO BE BACK ON N23
SO NICE TO BE
