We took Pirate Girl out today. Han’s his sister Lisi, Cary, Patty and me. It was a nice day sailing. Maybe 11 knots of wind and low seas. Everyone else was out also. 🙂 Jerry on LC Marie with Richard crewing, Orrin had La Bon Vie out, Diamond Girl was out and also Lickety Split.. Later as we were coming in we saw Achilies Heel anchored out at waities island.
The only excitement of the day was that we thought we had an engine problem at the end of the day..We started the engine and the warning buzzer stayed on and the voltage and oil pressure warning lights stayed on. We killed the engine and Patty went below to see if there was anything she could see on the engine that was obviously wrong. The wind was going pretty good and we were approaching the inlet so it was getting bouncy. I took in about 2/3 of the Jib and about half of the main.. (the main did not want to go into the mast again.. I took and put a little more tension on the main halyard and then pulled it all the way out before trying again and it went in then.
