I was able to send out the previous blog entry thanks to Zorana using their on board email system on the SSB.
Yesterday's good news is that Jack and Paul were able to free up the furler. It had been twisted and damaged when the samson post was ripped out but they managed to straighten it enough and work on it to the point that its now moving easily. This means that we can now relook at the genny and get it back in shape. Sandy has a decent sewing machine that will enable us to fix it to the point where we can rehang it. Final fixing will have to wait until we can take it to a sail maker, but at least we'll have our full set of sails available.
Unfortunately, we still haven't heard from the surf camp as to whether or not they've got our engine part; just wish they'd have the decency to let us know. Paul is now going to have to go over in the dinghy to find out as they don't answer the radio.
By this time tomorrow, hopefully we'll have an answer. Wish us lucki.
