We are mobile!

The new starter works. It was an exact replacement, fit perfectly, and worked first try. Fixed the problem!  We thought it would, but the confirmation is always nice.  It took Luke a couple of hours to install it, but he did a nice, professional job.  Access is from the head, all power off meant flashlight, headlight.  mmm...old starter, new starter...which shall we use...

The wind has blown constantly at about 20 knots all day, but the waves and rolling of the boat are down a lot.  We met on the boat of our friends Marion and Greg, along with 4 other boat loads of cruisers, for a while this late afternoon.  Always fun.  And this photo was shot before the last 2 folks showed up!

Tomorrow's forecast is for wind again, so we expect we'll still be here at Staniel.
