Cape Canaveral Jan. 14, 2016

January 14, 2016

Sorry for some reason this did not get out. Thanks for letting me know.

We have a car for a few days so have been to West Marine, Publix ,and the rope shop. Need to go to Target then my shopping is done. The dock line he ordered from the rope shop is to be in Friday so will go pick that up. The rope shop is something to see, a wow factor for boaters.

Today Bo is measuring how much new heavy wiring he needs for auto pilot and a new box. He has ordered parts for the genoa (it had to be shipped over night from France) as we need to put in new line and the screws are stripped so can't get the lines out. He has some of the issues resolved with the noisy wheel but in order to fix it total he has to take the chain out. We might wait and resolve this issue when we are back in the Chesapeake Bay this summer.

Today is cloudy but tomorrow is suppose to rain.

Saturday we have tickets to go to Kennedy Space Center and have a tour that includes lunch with an astronaut.  I was there 40 years ago and Bo has never been so the excitement is growing here. Our friend from Cat's Meow is driving up to go with us for the day.

Our Belgium friends have arrived in the Abacos on their 43 ft. Hans Christian  safe and sound and will continue on to Cuba then to Guatemala .

As of now our plan is to leave Monday. They have to shut the water off here on Monday so will fill water tanks and do laundry on Sunday. Hopefully Bo is able to get all the repairs done by then.

No pictures so you will have to wait until Space Center.
