After finding out that we have 20 belts that are too small, we were able get a new, but slightly used,.alternator belt installed. Father was understanding as he lectured me on having the correct size belts on board. I showed great restraint in not having him flogged. The seas have calmed. We're still being driven north but the winds are supposed to shift a bit today. We're just happy to recoup a little for right now. We all got a good night sleep last night but we're all still groggy from yesterday's beating.
