Tucked up in the relative calm of Pancake Creek whilst wind and rain do their thing, it seemed like a good day for some admin tasks.
Different to last year's problem we seem to have sheared teeth off three of the nine little plastic cogs that drive the steering wheel.
After a few hours trying to solve this problem I gave up and installed an alternative auto-helm named Jean to see us through the next few months
Stop press: we survived a woolly night in good shape. There were a few post-midnight trips on deck in gale conditions to investigate things that go bump in the night.
One of our neighbours had a few more bumps than us.
You guys look like real sailors! Hopefully Jean will keep you safe from now on. That neighbour of yours looks a bit sideways. Hope they are ok. Love to both of you x

ReplyDeleteLooks fabulous! Stay safe because I’m sure you forgot to pack Wilson the volleyball. I am enjoying sharing your adventure from my warm lounge. Xx Nicoli
