Hello All,
The weather for going south is not going to corporate for me to make it to Auckland on time for the concert so I will leave the boat here and take the bus down. I really wanted to get the boat down there and hang out but not in the cards. This is a really nice place to hang out, anyway and have got to visit with cruisers I haven't seen in a while.
Rob on Compass Rose came and got me today and we went for another hike and I got to bring my camera this time. It wasn't an awesome day but got some good pics. When I returned I went and had an awesome dinner and a good visit with Rob and Ruth on Albatross 3. She fixed a Lamb Roast with potato's and greens. I had a really good time visiting with them. They came here from South Africa looking to move here permanently. If you remember they brought Jon from Panama to Tahiti and that's where I met them and Jon. They are wonderful people and I will enjoy there company till I have to leave.
Speaking of leaving, I hope to head north to Opua on Monday, Dan will help me get the boat back. We should be there before the first where I will then figure out who is going to Fiji with me in May. I have had a few people interested in going so I will sort all of that out when I get there.
I have to move the boat to another location on Thursday and Rob on Compass Rose offered to help. Its not far away but where I am at belongs to someone else and they will be returning to claim there spot.
Not allot is happening here but just enough to keep me busy. I pulled the alternator off the boat engine today, I heard a funny noise coming from the engine room last week and turns out its the alternator. I took it all apart today and everything checked out OK. I loosened the belt a little and the noise went away which tells me it may be due for new bearings. I am really glad I don't mind working on things otherwise I would have jumped over long ago. hehe
Well that's all for now and I will keep in touch.
PEACE
