it was pleasant I would have known from the number of times George said, "nice day!" That is code for "I am happy to be sailing." We were anchored before noon, with 120 ft of anchor rode in anticipation of winds in the mid-twenties tonight through tomorrow night. George took the dinghy out and used the look bucket to check on the anchor. It is such a new experience for us to actually see the anchor. After lunch we dinghied to the beach and had a nice chat with a young man who spends his winters here before we took a walk up the hill. Then it was time for a swim.
George was not able to fix the solar panel yesterday. His tests with the multi-meter showed positive for voltage but negative for amps. He sent an email off to the company and we will see if a replacement is available.
Hi Bev & George, Karen and I own a Hanse 415 as well and have been following your blog with interest, next year planning to follow in your wake to the Bahamas. We have lots of questions as you have clearly prepared very carefully, but first wonder what anchor and ground tackle you are using. Fair winds, Hugh and Karen "Trekker"
