(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home3/aboarddi/public_html/blog/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114The local forecast for the day didn’t look good and worsening throughout the day. Wanting to be near Opua on Tuesday and desiring the increased shelter the area offer we set off before breakfast. We only hoisted the head sail but sailed fine on it alone arriving and anchoring just before the heavens opened. That was that for the day. We were pinned inside by very inclement weather which turned to gales in the afternoon and evening. Later on the wind shifted significantly bringing us very close to another boat in howling wind and rain. I had to go outside and shorten the chain by about 30ft to maintain a comfortable distance.<\/p>\n
During our sail I kept an eye on our leaky seal. It did start dripping but not a lot. I won’t touch it until we get better syringes which I can use to get the grease deeper into the seal. As it is I’m wondering if it’s now worth the bother of replacing the seal. The new one is now in the country so I may just hang onto it as an emergency spare.<\/p>\n
I played around with the blog a little bit. Not sure if I like it but I’ve put google ads on the site. More out of curiosity and learning than an exercise in getting rich. On the latter front we’ve earned precisely $0.00 since I switched it all on. Scaling up you can see it’s not going to be a big thing. I think I’ll run it for a few weeks just to see what happens then switch it all off.<\/p>\n
