Motor trouble!

Motor trouble! There's water in the gear oil. And that means "Babette" will again have to step onto terra firma. There's plenty of help to be had here; and we're now due to be lifted out at "Island Water World" Marina on Thursday. We think it was our close encounters with lobster pot lines that may have damaged the seal for the sail-drive. That means bad lubricating and that's no good!
Meanwhile, while Ørnulf is up to his elbows in oil, I finished yesterday's food inventory, stores reorganization and shopping lists.

And you thought all we do is go to bars in goggles and goggle at casinos!

We do take coffee and croissant breaks. While shopping for bread at the little French Boulangerie. On their palm fringed veranda overlooking the lagoon. A warm day, cool breeze. Black Frigate birds careening above. This is what we'll remember from our Caribbean sailing.

As we shovel snow next winter.
