We have now been onboard for a week and its amazing how many things you find that you had forgotten that you had. The boat is looking good and yesterday we started the engine. It was not a simple task unfortunately as it did not start first try, it appeared to be a battery issue, so Ken faithfully checked all of the connections again and still it did not start. We then solicited help from Jean-Guy and Murray and determined that we needed to give it a jump start.......that did the trick. Murray figured one of the brushes had gotten stuck in the starter motor and it just needed an extra kick start. Needless to say we were very relieved! Now we are ready to take Spanish classes for a couple of weeks! We are quite looking forward to this and hopefully our brains can absorb and we will be able to converse a little once we are done.
