April 2017 | MONTH IN REVIEW


Here's quick summary of what we were up to this month. 

  • We re-painted the surface on which the windlass sits and re-installed the windlass in the anchor locker.
  • Last month we removed the fiberglass panel in the head (part of the shower) to access the bolts on the sail track. We were surprised to discover that there were no nuts on those bolts! It's obvious the sail track was installed after the shower. Even though it's only about a meter of the entire ~6.5 meter track that had missing nuts, it's not something we'd like to take our chances on. So we added a backing plate and replaced the bolts and added nuts before re-sealing the panel again.
  • We spent a lot of time studying the Yanmar Parts Catalog. Not only to identify all the gaskets and o-rings we needed to order, but also as a reference guide to re-assemble the engine.
  • We met new friends Walter and Ae (from Australia & Thailand) on S/Y Baan Mai, who turned out to be friends of Rolf and Daniela. :)
  • Another month of hard work! How do we keep our spirits up? We treated ourselves to a tub of Haagen Daz ice cream of course! {an early birthday celebration for Alex!}
