A Short Message from Boy Wonder

Wanted:  Good Home

G'day Cap'n Speedo,

Yes, happy something birthday. I've lost count after your 50th, so I'll just assume its somewhere around that figure. I will have a beer this evening on your behalf.

How's everything, sailed anywhere yet or are you still pulling the boat apart to find that one rusty bolt that could cause a leak in maybe 15 years?????  Not much here has changed since my last e-mail so i'll let you get back to reading more instruction manuals, and remember, if you need any help, i know everything!!!

Take it easy,  BW

And then I saw it....blurp! blurp!  (recovering a lost mooring )

Giday BW,

Thank you for your birthday wishes and smart a*** comments.  I'll have you know that we simply haven't worked out how to undo the mooring lines - and we're working on it. 

Meanwhile, our solar panel kit arrived today, and we have resorted to paying a fabricator to make the frame work to hold solar panels.  Also today we finally worked out what was wrong with the autopilot and fixed it (with just a  little help from an electronics technician!!!).  We are due to check out of the marina this coming Wednesday, hopefully, solar panel fitting allowing of course.

So there!  Great and significant progress is being made.

Cheers, The Cap'n

PS  Love from Mummy  (who has doubts about achieving our Wednesday departure....) 

PPS  We had a really nice fresh crab feast for my b'day dinner.  You would have really liked it!

Happy Birthday also to Tree Boy who really can sail (here's proof) but for the moment prefers trees.
