last time on the lazy geckos there it is you see completely broke Britney decided to but
she wanted to go up the mast she's gonna go ahead and flip the wired oh it's not that
bad I love it let me do it so this turns out it's probably 15 inches long like little air out of it
like father
they were seeing happy and they always make people happy good like me
so right now we're motoring on one engine trying to conserve fuel only 2,000 rpm
and then when we round Long Island right there we will tax out and look at sales
up and then we've got the inches down we should have a nice slow sell or South sale
yeah
all right just checking in husband is asleep it's my third watch it's about with
4:30 in the morning I think I'll go probably another hour doing like three hour increments
three hours for me then I'll lay back down the wind
and going about seven and a half and we're going about three
making our way Long Island
have actually been sailing the entire way we really don't want to turn and we don't want to
diesel and the last place to stop I'd like to just say lon right by it so we topped off before
we left George spread around Georgetown we're at Emerald Bay Marina we topped up
there and as long as we sail the whole way we don't have to top off again at the last stop
over the Bahamas and edge of the Caribbean so an overnight passage tonight it's going pretty good
it's okay I'd rather be slow and steady and calm
Pisces high winds and get there fast there's another boat out here on a is which always they
should go a little bit better they're moving at 14 knots so they're going a lot faster
still makes you feel better one mother votes out here so the deal is at night
who's ever done watch these tethered in and you're not allowed out of the square meaning
any what basically if you're underneath the Dodger you're fine but you can't go past it so that's
kind of I need us a nice thing of chili before we laughs oh that's in the crock-pot staying
warm and I kinda just munch on and I'm actually really full but it's gonna be hard work so I
should probably stop munching on things spin makan there's a little chilly and underneath
like but hold up now I'm looking forward to hitting the bed in an hour
and hopefully sleeping My Mind's been racing asleep hopefully I crash and I crash hard
here's the yummy pot of chili we've already eaten
through the fields of
feelings
close Buddhists rangedown dreams holy discloser Meadows are
hundreds the car
holy disclosure
we can see soon
right now we're between between Long Island and crooked Island which are pitched in the Bahamas
we left Georgetown that we left there around 11 o'clock in the morning we got knocked off
on diesel it got in the way we were able to sail a lot of the way between Georgetown and Long Island
we're only got the Long Island is basically when someone down and we rounded at the north side of
the island and we sailed all night long down the east side our cruising over to crooked Island
tonight we're gonna anchor there and enjoy the evening and then we're going to go ahead
and - on tomorrow the Genoa repair it looks like the tape stretching I don't know if it's supposed
to or not I wouldn't agree good look at it but over what we did was we just ran the Genoa open
just up to the point where is ripped and then we left the RIP wrapped up with silicate it's like a
super reef but today we went ahead and open the screecher we're sailing with it right now we're
in ten knots on the beam and we're going about between five and six knots that's didn't great
but you know flight wins and and we have the main up but it's reams simply because the winds were
coming from lay a broad reach and the mainsail was blocking the wind for the creature but we breathed
it was brilliant idea was just good directed and now the screech is full and it's really calm quiet
sail it's really nice risa sitting there eating some potato chips play on those little toys
because she hadn't gone potty she goes potty in the pool and she hasn't been
walked we leave her in there to go to she's like coming past but it's been they sell good
I know woman name was jasmine she was Wow Wow
she said come on we could have fun and then she wanted me to go she couldn't stand
what do you think about the rudder well in these bearings that's the shirt
there's a shoe in the bottom of it holding the rudder so we should be fine as far as like they'd
have a failure but you know we should probably get it replaced where we can the rudder or the
berry out of the bearing so the buck runner you just have to replace the bearings on the shaft
that are open the hall so it has some play in it but you would like you to go hard to starboard
go all the way with the steering wheel just go turn all the way toast stops and hold it there
we're hard to starboard okay
all right go ahead your heart apart okay I'm hard to port hold it there
I'll tell you with your straight through back good
then we can do about it here and I talked to the engineers his head you're not gonna
sign any danger it's not gonna fall off because we had that split as we
go along I'll check it keep watching it and then we'll replace as soon as we can
yeah I mean why not give you a shower scene yeah you need to put one leg crooked bend your
knee and arch your back put your head back yes Anchorage spot number three just moved
Anchorage's went around the island a little bit ding he's been banging against this pole as we
go through rough seas bangs right against it we try to secure it at the aft end of the dinghy
but it just it's not working so when we stop we'll obviously get something built for right
here so it won't bang I was thinking I'm gonna clean it up because it has a brand new dinghy
and it kind of sucks when you go here to eat your brand-new dinghy and there's a huge brown spot on
it so I'm gonna clean it up and then I think maybe wrap like some towels with some bungee
cords around here so when it's smacking it it doesn't continue to do that on the lazy Gekko
our D was not brand new and it couldn't come up on davit so sat in the water a lot of time
I used bar keeper's friend so that's what I'm gonna try to use this time hopefully it work
instead of working out today this is what I'm gonna do go to the tricep let's say you're getting
it in the front there it was crazy getting in this Anchorage so we were on the I guess west
end of the island and swells and the wind was coming from the south so we were like the water
was coming up here and they're like you know what let's move it's a little too Rocky I've
been wanting to do the dinghy so we came around there was actually somewhere a boat a monohull
right where we are right now so we first anchored back there it was still pretty rocky but coming in
it was like a minefield of coral heads I thought I didn't want to do it jermiah felt confident so
we went ahead and we did it we're here now which is great that was pretty intense definitely scared
me now we got to get out yeah like five in the morning I know well we're definitely pretty
sure coming up closer to five so I was up good mornings ago that early and it's bright I just
get to like pour rain all over me go dance Dave it's like that one video he just watched the
video the movie was back in like the seventies or something and that's wonderful I didn't you
did a wonderful job up to you to remember I think we should just bungee cord a towel
here not that stuff takes a couple of seconds to get activated once it's going it's going
that's a she be balls hot I know we should really turn it on so we're trying not to use
the generator yeah and we're try not to use a generator we just use the engines
to motors so now I think it should be shower time yeah I'm still in there no
it's like melt your skin off it eat there we go nice Oh actually it looks kind of difficult
coming up well that was that we are leaving the Bohemian water 29 hours
we got the immigration paperwork and then the customs department paperwork it kind
of got shot up and the dog doesn't get murdered on sight Little Miss Bella it's
really weird you're ready Reese my lady they come tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. for the firearms
