It's nice to be able to steer
18 February 2020 | Marco island, smokehouse bay - still
Don Winchell | Hot, mostly settled but a few gusts
We finished the steering cable replacement today, except for the part we don't have. But we have things centered and balanced. If it is indeed the right part it should only take about a 1/2 hour to put in. Then we will be ready to roll, or float, down the coast.
Been hot, high 80s or near 30 C for you Canadian readers.
We picked up a chart plotter today at west marine, like we had on our old boat. I has current charts and detailed charts, so we won't be sailing on land any more (we hope). Also got new fuel filter, jib lines and line for the bridal.
Sara got more fashionable clothing and we did not have ice cream while in town. Looks like we will visit the other two r
rafted Geminis next door.
So we should be heading south again, Thursday or Friday.
