Diesel class; Corona World Tour is on schedule, ours may be postponed

We squeezed in a marine diesel engine seminar last week at Mack Boring in NJ. It was a great class...I am happy to say that my favorite shipmate is now both an excellent cook and can bleed diesel injectors and swap out a blown alternator.

On a different note, the Corona virus will likely delay the start of our adventure. There are many stories on the web of cruisers being denied entry into ports around the globe, marinas closing, and lack of availability of fuel and supplies. We have reached out to Hallberg-Rassy for what they are advising clients to do, but no response yet. I suspect that they are trying to figure it out in the same way we are.

So... we are catching up on Netflix and practicing splicing at home for a while. Will post when schedule becomes more clear.
