Spanish Cay
Another lazy day in paradise. Continued to get caught up on our emails and Michael used Skype to call Lynn to see if he could work with Golden State Diesel in Alameda to obtain the engine seal parts we need. Finally did determine that it is the front seal that is leaking. If we can get the parts then maybe we can find a licensed Yanmar mechanic to work on the engine here in the islands. Michael repaired the cockpit light connection. This afternoon we motored over to the dock to get fuel. Used 31.3 gallons since we left Hollywood, FL on January 6. Decided to stay here one more night since we could only go a short distance this afternoon. Watched the sun disappear behind a set of clouds on the horizon just as four dolphins circled the boat. The wind has completely died the first time since we entered the Bahamas. Strange to not have at least 15 knots of wind.

Spanish Cay to Manjack Cay
Awoke to dead calm. The anchorage was flat - spotted a huge star fish nestled in the grass. We headed off for Manjack Cay around 10:30AM and arrived |
