November 12 Saturday
Decide to leave Mana for Musket Cove. Breeze is 20-25 knots on the nose all the way to Castaway island ande then round the corner is a bit off the bow, mkes for an easy motor sail into Musket Cove.
Clark Gable, a Beal 36, Terry and Amanda Morris are here on a mooring...motor around them to say gidday and then drop anchor in the stream.
Later into the island bar for a few beers and a chat with Terry.
November 12 Sunday
Still in Musket Cove...finally found the fuel problem that;s been palguing me over that past few weeks...its the drain plug on the water trap which is a glass bowl affair between the primary filters and the lift pump.
I noticed diesel on one of the stringers on the hull and followed it to where the water trap sits...tightend the drain plug, no more diesel leak and no more air !
Went into the island bar with my piece of steak to cook on the barbeque. Terry and Amanda arrive with sausages and salad...very pleasant dinner with the sun going down.
November 13 Monday
Up early and off to Vuda Pt in 25 knots !!
1030 in the basin in the middle waiting my turn on the travel lift
1415...still waiting .....
