Repairs


December 7
Today the winds were light and favorable for us to relocate to the Berrie Islands or to Port Lucaya, but instead we chose to stay right where we are. In any matter, Joana needed some attention today. 1st item on the list was the aft head, which broke earlier this morning. Thank god I wasn’t on the throne when that occurred. I’ve been well trained to run to shore and only use the head incase of emergency! So, I guess the day started on a shitty note especially with the head having to be taken apart. Then came the 2nd item on the list, which was the jib furling line. It broke during the night and we had to replace it with something stronger and longer. Last, but not least the switch for the cockpit mood lighting was not turning off. Wade had to replace the switch due to corrosion. It was an interesting day… all the repairs were done! We have a functioning head. Phewf!
