Party on Charabia

01 February 2018 | Chiapas Marina, Mexico

Up early. After breakfast, we headed to the marina only to find out that our impeller was not in the office. Rolf checked with the mechanic who drove to FedEx to get it, only to find that it won't be here until late tomorrow. We are planning on doing the check out process tomorrow, and leaving on Saturday. Looks like we will be delayed leaving until we receive our half paid expensive part or are not happy. Mark added lines to the starboard side of Charabia, to pull her off the dock in order for him to scrape the props and hull from that side. I cleaned the inside of our boat and then washed the outside. Mark helped after he was done in the water. We showered using our sun shower and then I cooked lunch. Also, baked some brownies for our cruiser happy hour which we hosted. It was a lot of fun and laughs. Lots of information exchanged. Another late night for us. We will fill our jury jugs tomorrow as well and be ready for the next leg of 900 miles to Puerto Vallarta.

About:
We are both computer folks that were live aboard cruisers back in the 90s. We settled in Jacksonville Florida after escaping the great white north and cruising the Bahamas, T&C, DR and points south down to Trinidad. [...]
Extra: Charabia is a French slang word for nonsense or gibberish. It derives from Arabic "sharab" which means alcohol.When you drink (too much) alcohol, you start talking Charabia. The original owners named her and Mark liked the name so it stuck.
