Up at 7ish. Breakfast, the net then turn the boat around. We are now in the position the boat will be in for the rest of the summer.

We have hooked up shore power and internet to the boat.

I called about our dinghy, and while I was told it should get to the importer yesterday, we are “on the schedule” for today. I will call later to check on it.

After lunch we did our Bible reading.

Charlie is due to fix the aft A/C (NO SHOW AGAIN, I think we will find someone else to fix this, perhaps in the fall).

Up at 7:30 (slow). Breakfast, the net, then turn the boat around.

We put the anchor down on the dock then all 300 feet of chain. I rinsed it with fresh water and washed the anchor locker. Then after the chain was dry we put it back. Then we washed the boat. This should be relatively cool, after all we are running the hose and spraying it with water. But the temperature was about 95° and 80% humidity.

After lunch, we did our Bible reading.

Why I have no desire to be a solo sailor. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10902931/Australian-sailor-John-Deer-swims-17km-falling-boat-near-Panama.html?fbclid=IwAR15129BFeQA1niqzBUAbWIavBDjtzATw414KX4jsNTHjF7iY5_JtcuAos8&fs=e&s=cl#l4al5rqy3kgjqcx8v7m

17 km =10.5 miles

 

 

Up at 7:30 or so, then after breakfast off to the bus and church. Then lunch with the usual crowd.

We did some shopping on the way back to the boat. Then the pool and happy hour.

After dinner a card game, since we don’t keep score anymore (we are both too competitive) it’s a more relaxed play of cards.

Then some chatting, showers and bed.

Tomorrow we plan to turn the boat around and pull the anchor chain out and wash it.

Up at 7:30 Breakfast, read the Bible, and listen to the net. Then Reneé took the clothes to the laundromat. I started the water maker to fill the tank. John’s helpers showed up at about 9 and started work on pulling more wires.

 

Up at 7:30 or so. Breakfast and the net, bible reading. Then John Pounder and company are due here at 9 to continue working on the wiring.

They worked until about 4 pm. Then Reneé worked on making bread. About that time the generator guy showed up and started working on the generator. We will see if he can make any progress.

It rained last night, complete with thunder and lightening at 2:30 this morning. This afternoon it is hot. 92 degrees and 64% humidity outside. 82 degrees and 40% humidity in the boat.

We walked to the pool at about 7 pm, that being about what time we got done with dinner and needing to get off the boat. Then after a dip in the pool we talked to our mom’s then walked the beach and back to the boat. Showers and bed.
