Things are arriving thick and fast just 1 tube
short of thick enough. The DuoGen our power source when we are out and
about has arrived with DHL but is 3 boxes, there should also be a tube
with the delivery. I'm hoping the Mr DHL is holding the tube to ransom
until I pay the duty on the lot. If not we may have to find it in the system
somewhere.
Good thing is Winny had a full survey yesterday and
came through pretty well. She spent a couple of hours suspended on the
lift at Tortola Yacht Services, then Mike the surveyor had me on the winch to
get him to the top of the mast for a rig inspection. Managed to get him up
and down safely so we will get the report he's not still dangling
there.
Winny is now back at the Phase Out dock getting
things sorted out that were apparent in the survey. Then we can get on
with cleaning up and getting settled in. A little rearranging of gear to
correct a list to port is first on the list, this was very apparent yesterday as
we lined up in the lift for the haul out, I think with all the vertical
structures around it was very obvious.
Sea is blue, sun is out and wind in the
channel looks about a 3 so, other than one cruising chute nipping along there
are alot of Bobs bobbing along today.
More when we have a full consignment..
