We got Sporty (Gennaker) out of the loft and back onto the boat. It was a complete jumble of sail that we had to manhandle into the forward locker as it was too windy to put up.
Sadly Rowan has tweaked his back, he thinks from lifting the washing machine with John, so he is being extremely cautious. The guys did their final polish of the dagger board and got the copper coat on, so it all looks gleaming and ready to go back tomorrow. The only downside is that it is the staff Christmas party this afternoon, and fingers crossed they make it back tomorrow!
Fixed Dagger Board
The Fibre Glass guys
Not much going on at all except the German Catamaran a few down from us had a monumental argument between some guys. We have subsequently heard it is a charter trip that the Swiss guy has paid for as a Christmas holiday and now the boat has major engine problems. They spent all afternoon getting the one engine out, not much of a Christmas holiday.
Hoping like mad that we are going to be able to leave tomorrow, but nothing definite as we have to get the dagger board back into the boat with at least 6 people and we need our main sail bag back. We plan to head to Bocas another set of islands north of here.
