A busy day as preparations for departure commenced. Boat washed inside and out, bread cooked, Rum Slice made, washing completed, Gratis packed.

The replacement parts for the Gennie should have arrived. Bob up top impatiently awaiting, as everyone stops work at 4pm here – only 10 minutes to go. Adendum to that: they are arriving tomorrow, so Gennie will be repaired soon after.

Customs still to arrive for clearance.

Departure delayed until Wednesday because strong winds resulting from high coming in.
