Santa Cruz in Monteray Bay
We had a great time at Half Moon Bay.................but felt it was time to move on. There really was not much there. So up early and away for a nice day of sailing ............sunny skies and a little wind.
Arrived at a reasonable time last night and had a good nights sleep.
September 8th.
Here we are..............sitting at Aquairus Boat Works...........praying lots and weighing up our options. The Captain had been contemplating the sounds he was hearing from the engin room. We had a few nice guys here today with their clip boards and stethscopes anlysing the situation of our dear motor and they have all decided that we need a NEW MOTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!
So................the next few weeks will be spent pulling the old one out...painting the engine room. I mean why not hey? Then the new motor will get craned in and BOB IS YOUR UNCLE as the saying goes.
Nothing quite a few thousand dollarw wont fix.
As the the saying goes............you pay me now or you pays me later. What will it be? This way we will be able to leave here in a few weeks knowing and trusting that if and when we need the motor she will be there. It could be a life altering situation..............so that is the decision. A new Yamar.
All charitable donations will be greatly appreciate and will not be reciptable. HAHHAHAH. Just kidding guys...................this is the way life goes right?
Needless to say we went out for supper and had a few glasses of wine and will get right to work tomorrow getting things ready. Looks like the supe maket is about a half hour walk away.......so I will get my exercise tomorrow.
Until later............remember to read from the bottom up of the blog so that you can catch up and then stay current...................Good nite.
Love Lue and Claes on the White Shell II
Talk to you later.....................
