Indiantown never lets you leave!
21 May 2011 | Still on Land
The picture shows the rolling front which tested the hatches etc for leaks.
It looks like we may finally be on the move although not very far - just down the St Lucie canal to the city of Stuart, where we will provision, stow and add a few modifications to the sails. There is noboby among the yachtsmen at Indiantown, it seems, who does not know of some disaster or another, such as pirates, grounding on unmarked reefs or major equipment breakages. Not very reassuring. So it will be good to finally get going and get busy again. At the moment I'm doing very little as Ivan sorts out the electrics on board with a technician. Definitely no available space on board while that is underway. So soon, possibly Tuesday, it will be farewell to Indiantown - a small town in the middle of nowhere in particular and farewell and to a host of friendly yard operators and sailors.
