2nd May

Well we didn't leave today and we're not leaving tomorrow. Six out of the eight main boat batteries are duds. The mechanics have been fabulous. They've been here all day. They've taken all the batteries out. Bear in mind they're heavy truck units. They've relocated them into a more accessible place. We've ditched two of them to make it work but that still leaves us with plenty of power in theory. It only remained to hit the credit card hard. It's been overcast, cold and rainy so staying wasn't an issue. There are always problems. Fingers crossed the battery problems are now solved. What will be next?
