Today was probably the hardest day we’ve had so far. We had to put the steering cables back in. It was extremely difficult. We had to loop the cable around the drum five times and then hook it up to the quadrant. I had to take my gloves off when
Woke up this morning to a stunning sunrise. Tom pulled the anchor up and we took off. Well, about 300 yards from the anchorage the steering stopped working, while I was at the helm. It was a pretty scary feeling and I almost ran us into the marsh. I quickly
Woke up at 6:30 this morning. I felt tired this morning, more than usual. It got better once we got going. We almost ran aground in the Savannah river. Thankfully we bounced off the bottom and carried on with our lives. It scared both of us. We were stuck at

The thing I’ve miss the most are Rich and my beautiful doggies. They are everything to me. I’ve been starting to feel a little homesick lately. I can’t wait to see them again. We had some issues with the bilge and a fuel leak today. We had to pump around
