A Day in the Life -

Hello,

So we have found that if we run the water-maker about 2 hours every 5 days, we are able to keep the batteries from completely dying, and that we have enough water to survive for another week, and do a load of laundry!

The new improved shorter rudder is nearly ready for re-install. As I keep talking with people it becomes more and more obvious that a lot of people hit their rudders. There is even a guy at Raiatia who specializes in repairing bent and chewed up rudders. Apparently there is enough business to create a specialty. The trick seems to be to have an easily straightened rudder shaft, and materials enough to do any needed repairs.

We should be heading off to the fabled Bora-Bora within a few days. The dream is to climb up the tallest peak, and take some great photos!!

Courage
