      A month in Ft Lauderdale

      May 1, 2023 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 77 °F

      In all we spent an unplanned month in Ft. Lauderdale. It allowed me to fly to get a medical checkup at Duke. Then to repair the overheating generator and replace the watermaker boost pump. We weathered two storms, one with gusts of 63 knots at anchor. After that one, we got to rescue a friend's dinghy when their davit collapsed under the weight of all the water that filled it when 26 inches of rain fell in one day (20 inches in 6 hours), while they were away. The watermaker needed a rebuild of the Clark pump as well, but we couldn't find anyone available in less than five weeks, so I rebuilt it myself with that assistance of JT Halden (expert). We met Kevin on Midnight Dancer, and Cheryl & Jamie on Pacific High, as well as numerous others. I cleaned the hulls once (and they need it again, already). In the slow moments, I varnished wood trim or hauled drinking water to the boat. Quite a month!Read more
