Awaiting Parts
Okay, who's idea was this? We sit here in Guadeloupe awaiting parts from France. The fan that circulates fresh air when we run the generator does not work. So when we run the generator (3 times a day for 2 hours) to recharge the batteries, make water, etc. we must open the engine room door, which happens to be the floor of the cockpit. In 30c temperatures, this makes sailing rather uncomfortable. We hope for the part to arrive Monday, so we are planning a Tuesday departure. We know we have been in the marina too long, because everyone who was here when we arrived, has now left.
Alas, one lives the life one chooses, no?

If you think you have it tough, try being Paul Martin. If you haven't been following the juvie Cdn politics you'll get caught up fast enough when you get back - with any luck you might be able to vote one more time here.
