Perhaps not until we reach Fiji. I joke. At least I hope so. But it feels like it sometimes. Continuous on and off drizzle and rain is just so dull. At least our new shades are doing a great job of keeping our cockpit dry.<\/p>\n

I dropped off the car Saturday morning popping in to the propane store to fill the container that was discharged by the recent leak. Unfortunately I’d put it off too long and discovered the propane store was only open Monday to Friday. Fortunately Steve from True Companions is going to take me round on Monday.<\/p>\n

Most of the day was spent, under Helen’s direction, shifting things around the boat. The balance is now even better than before. Furthermore, using some arcane magic, Helen managed to find places for all the stuff scattered around the boat. Even the forward guest bunk is almost free of stored stuff. That will be needed when we head up to Fiji as it looks like Paul will be joining us again as well as Sam.<\/p>\n
