Woke up 4.30 this morning, our mooring had let
go... at least enougt to be hooked to another sailboat.
Winds at around 25-30 knots, massive rain. We had
to let the moring go and get out in open water.
Just motoring around until dawn and we could search
a new mooring...
Wake the kids up, they where invited to go to
school, I was supposed to go with them but I was stressed with the winchlass so
Kristina at Miss My took them.
I had to find some internet to download mail and
drawings from our DP, Dag.(Thank you Dag!)
Next thing try to get a special tool for getting
one of the shafts loose from the gearbox. Got it thanks to a Swedish guy on the
island.
Opened up the gearbox etc you do not want to know
al the details, but when I was going to rush back with the tool the dinghy
engine gave up.
Peter from Stormvogel came with his dinghy and
suddenly he found himselfe at work with the windlass...
And so on... all dammed day.
Then we had to change mooring because the one we
took was private...bla bla bla.'
The kids in school? They liked it but complained
about to much noise... spoiled....
Ellinor did the laundry on board all
day.
I fixed the outboard, hate it... but now I know how
to.,...
Hope to get windlass fixed tomorrow, ordered
a part from a company called "Troubles in Paradise"
