Bear Bolt
Hunting
 This morning Bear
did a bale out.
 Off he went ashore to meet Inthie with
the alternators broken bolt.
 Inthie took Bear to an engineering workshop and saw a bit of head
scratching.
 Quite big boats
were out for repair. I really like the palm frond
cover.
 Chap top right was welding.
 Our view all
afternoon. We have decided to postpone leaving until Tuesday to let all
this stuff pass.
 The leak is
ongoing but Bear thinks the water tracks through the solar panel
wires.
 Not often Baby Beez has five inches of
water, especially after only a few hours. In
fact rare she ever had water further forward from the back to about half way.
Inthie told Bear he has doubts if many Eid parties will happen
tomorrow.
 I took a
turn at bailing out and went with last night’s quarry in hand. Last night
I got up to spend a penny and saw a dark flash run and hide under my bedside
stool. COCKROACH. I wrapped my stool in our shower mat and Bear raced for a bin
liner. The whole lot was covered, sealed and put out in the cockpit. Once in
Baby Beez I undid the top of the black sack and bailed into it,
grabbing the top in between filling motions. Sloshed about a bit, I went on the
hunt. Nothing, nudda. OH NO, I can only hope
the creature is a chap and causes no mischief. After all these years of being so
careful, not having seen one on board in years, and then we see one in the
cockpit in Hulhudheli and now indoors here (Inthie told us later that they fly
from the woods behind us). It would be such a shame, annoying and creepy if we
ended up with a settlement........ Bailing done, time for a swift sherbet and
games before supper and NCIS Los Angeles.
ALL IN ALL A GOOD START SAVE
FOR THE CREATURE
PROBLEM SOLVING
