I do this blog to remind me of what we've done and to let the kids know we're still alive. It's kept short and factual. I have discovered that several people are looking at this. Perhaps I should try to make it more interesting and even insightful!
Today our new dinghy arrived. The old one has leaks in two of the three major tubes beyond my abilities to repair. I ordered a RIB that has a rigid hull with inflatable tubes on top. It was meant to be 10cm shorter than the current one. When we looked at it we thought we needed a bigger catamaran. It took considerable ingenuity and several hours to squeeze it onto the davits. We will have to see if our weedy outboard manages to push it through the water. The delivery men were going to take the old, deflated, sad, inflatable away. A Filipino crewman on a motorboat spotted it and was last seen trying to repair the leaks. Good luck to him. There was time for a few more jobs and a reprovisioning run to the supermarket.
