The last few days were boat project days, tested the water maker and I am glad we did because the impeller for the pump was bad. So I ordered a couple, we will pick them up once we get to Jensen Beach. Currently we are still at anchor waiting for a large almost tropical storm to pass, hopefully tomorrow we are back at it. Current plan is 3 days to get to a staging area, possibly in West Palm Beach, then a possible weather window opens up on Tuesday or Wednesdays which we might take advantage of to cross to the Bahamas. We may change plans and check in to the country in Freeport instead of Bimini, only because we met some fellow cruisers that are heading that way and we would like to cross with other boats. Safety in numbers…
Other news, that stupid generator is still acting up, I had to completely rip it apart , re string the pull starter again and check all wire connections. The good news is, it is currently working, the bad news is it does not like to start the water makers pump. I will try to figure out a workaround though.
We also did our provisioning for wine and Liquor yesterday, I opted to get the store brand rum, due to my cheapness. Hopefully that does not come back to bite me.
Finally testing of Star Link is complete, the unit is not mounted in its final spot yet, but it does work.
