May 14th, 2025 Wednesday(San Carlos Marina Seca ‘DRY’)

Published 05/24/2025
Up at 6 am, no not to do anything, just a habit. Breakfast and bible reading, then over to the boat. We spent some time distracted talking to other people. Reneé walked to the boat parts store and bank, I went to the boat.
Reneé came with the fuel additive. They didn’t have enough for our tank, we have 160 gallons of diesel, that takes 5 bottles of additive. About 10:30 Allan was there to take me to see Luis to make the collar plate. I also coordinated with Alejandro to fix our keel after hitting a rock.
A lot of things got taken care of in fairly short order.
We were back in the Air bnb for lunch. Then out for an early dinner with Lanie and KC on SV Hawkwind for beer and dinner we were back by 5:30.

While this looks like a picture of a crane… it is really a picture of a wind vane. They let the crane move with the wind, so it points in the diretion of the wind.
This is the broken plate, note there are 3 pieces in this picture. The two small ones in the lower left corner are all that is left of what broke off. The missing pieces all came out as basically sand.
Some cute signs in the Hammerhead restaurant
