Good weather. Doing some miles. It's the best day
so far. Also one of the more comfortable ones. The boat sure have taken a
beating in the last 40 days. One of the keel bolts is leaking & I'm taking
water, but it's manageable. I'll have to haul in Halifax & drop the keel to
replace the bolts. They are important as they hold the boat upright & they
are now 35 years old. Did not have the time or dosh to do it in Norfolk. I am
fairly close to shore, about 30 miles & on the western edge of the current.
Great position but a lot of ships & fishing boats. Catnap one hour at a
time. Getting chilly too. Looking forward to a proper winter again. It will be
the first one in ten years. Perhaps I'll go skiing again. Sure was fun last
time.
