Today we moved from the
Melbourne Yacht Club to Eau Gallie Boatworks, courtesy of Tow Boat US. We greatly appreciate the hospitality of
MYC. Every one there is most
gracious. However, we had to leave. MYC is repairing their docks and are starting
with the outboard ends which is where we were tied. They are also having racing events this
weekend and need all their available dock space.
Eau Gallie Boatworks is the
local distributor and repair facility for our brand engine. When Ed came to our boat this morning to do
the repair, he found he needed tools he only had available at the
boatyard. This became an additional
reason for us to move.
The parts requiring attention
were removed quickly after arriving at the club. The problem is a little more difficult than
expected and may require either a machine shop or an additional new part.
And now it is the
weekend. So, I guess we get to sit
parked for a few more days. As Barbara
was informed this morning, a cruiser’s plans are carved in jello.
We’ll go to a farmer’s market
tomorrow morning and then work on a boat project or two. Barbara might even sew some curtains!
