What bad luck! It sounds like another expensive repair will be necessary. I hope you don't get any stormy weather. with love,Triciax

Leaving Levuka at 1300 local on 9/10/15 for Opua NZ. We have a weather route from Bob Mc Davitt, but will be checking in with you regularly by radio as we like the way you explain things. very difficult to hear the broadcast today [noise] but gather David was recommending Monday


Hopefully Bobs, plan not a disaster!
