We have finally arrived at a real "boat yard", ESS-KAY Yard, Inc., with some folks we can trust to make our much needed repairs. We have had a small diesel fuel leak from the engine along with an overflow situation from the coolant reservoir for some time. This resulted in a layer of coolant and water with a thin layer of diesel in the bilge. Since we can't afford to cause an oil spill I had been scooping the diesel fuel out of the bilge while trying to find the leak. That is not a fun job and it has been going on for several weeks. The leaks have been found and a fuel pump, heat exchanger and several gaskets are being shipped overnight so we should be on our way again by Monday.
The weather is great, we are among friends and this is a pleasant place so we are happy to stay for a while, take advantage of an Enterprise rental car weekend special and see a few sights on land.
