Well this is maybe the roiliest trip I have had for 20 years, but at least
we are making fast speeds of about 8.5 knots. A few more days to Seychelles
and we can ride on giant tortoises. No time for play here as the boss is
coming in a few days for a holiday. Hopefully a few days off after he goes
in early July.
We just found another overheating problem with the main engine. This hasn't
slowed us down yet as we have enough horsepower to for what we need, but the
next leg we will need more. There is a blockage in the raw water discharge
pipe and this is restricting the speed of coolant for the engine. So we will
have to fix that in Seychelles too.
