Sitting at anchor in Pelican Bay (Cayo Costa) 5/14/10. This trip started 4/2/10. We took off that day for the weekend only to have the boat run poorly. Fuel filter changes did not help. Time for a real boat mechanic. Unfortunately, we weren't the only poor running boat in town. A number of simple tries did not fix the problem. Eventually the injectors were removed and serviced. Several internal fuel filters were replaced as were the spark plugs. Pretty Girl now runs like a top.
We were out with Nick and Shannon on Mothers Day and had some fresh fish for supper.
We left our dock about 9 and had the hook down in our favorite anchorage about 2 1/2 hours later. We are waiting to see if we will be able to see the shuttle fly in about an hour.
That's all for now. Stay tuned. More later.
OK, we did get a glimpse of the shuttle in between cloud layers. We had plotted the direction from our anchorage to Cape Canaveral on the GPS. We have a little portable TV, watched the lift off and shortly saw the shuttle (very briefly) exactly where the GPS showed us it would be (043 degrees magnetic). Too bad it wasn't perfectly clear. At least we saw a part of history.
