So here we are again!!

Bob and Katrilli are back in action- maybe.
The engine is fixed and working but I wasn't happy with a heavy rattling noise so the mechanics came on board yesterday realigned the engine a bit and everything seems to work .I said I would accept the condition so long as the head honcho gave it the all clear and he did so now I just need to start my trip again.
I was going to leave tomorrow, still might but have to wait for a gas piece to turn up. There's no rush so I'll be heading 30 miles up the coast anchor and reacquire my sea legs.Its been 6 months and everything is a bit new so ,slowly slowly catchy monkey.How that's appropriate I don't know.
Anyhow this is me testing my blog skills and even hot spotting the laptop is a forgotten skil1,I'd better try a few pictures but can't do any more Carta ones.
This is my new engine before fitting.

This is Theo and me .The skipper who got orcaed when we were sailing past Cashcai ( that's not how you spell it but this isn't an English course).He wrote a great little piece in Yachting monthly August edition.very scary.

''The orca shook the boat like a toy''



These are some English Electric Lightenings from the 1960's. great picture they're upside down not it.


And this is a peacock butter fly taken in Sussex a month ago.
That's all for now.I think this went well. Watch out for more dynamic info ,commentary and pictures from the sea.
Bloody hot here!
