Boat Repairs


We finally left Man o War, It cost us $4000 to get everything fixed. But they did work for the 4 grand. We had two sails fixed. We had a cover made, We had the transmission replaced, we had the starboard drive shaft replaced, we had our port side strut strengthened, which required some fiberglass work. So we actually got a good deal, but it still hurts to spend that much on the boat.

We had a pretty good time in Man o War. I started running again, the dogs and I would go about 4 miles, it was two miles up to the north end of the island.  We went to every beach on the island. They are gorgeous beaches. Every once in a while you would see some of the locals swimming on them. tThe dogs loved the beaches. The beaches are protected by an offshore reef but there are still some rollers coming in. Max didn’t care, we get to the beach and he would just runs right into the waves and starts swimming.  It’s amazing to watch because when we first got him he didn't know how to swim at all. 


Today we are in Marsh Harbour. We will be here until Monday. Karen needs to see the Bronco’s game tomorrow. Today we are also going to resupply. They have a grocery store here that is the biggest in the Bahamas. They have almost everything and we need some stuff. After that we are going to start heading south.  I want to be in Turks and Cacaos by the 15th of October. Then we will make the passage to Puerto Rico.
