Breakfast and Boat work

Up early. Took a cab over to the St. Regis resort for breakfast with Mike & Lara. Thanks so much for the good food and great company! We stopped at Punta de Mita on the way back and checked out the beach and shops. Then headed back and made a stop at the sail loft. They had some questions which Mark was able to answer. The work on the sail was supposed to be done today, so hopefully, by tomorrow, we will have it back. Mark changed the oil in both sail drives. He also changed the oil in the starboard engine as that one was used the most along our recent travels. Walked over to the ship yard to deposit the old oil and spoke with the manager lady to get prices on a haul out. Mark found a fuel leak in the port engine which has been ongoing so he used JB Weld to fix it. We went to the top restaurant, for the first time, for a drink and some quesadillas. The afternoon breeze picked up and the wind felt cooler walking up to the cruisers' lounge this evening. Looks like many boats have left recently. We may be here for a couple more days. It's Mark 's turn to pick a movie. We watched Avatar last night.

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.
