Shortly after our arrival yesterday, we came into the marina, for more internet. As we were coming in, we looked for Minx, our friend Roy's boat. We didn't see it, and as we walked up to the resturant, Karin said, " I was really hoping to see Roy here..." at that moment I looked inside, and said, there he is! Right where we left him. We met and had some good laughs, and caught up with each others travels. He asked where we were heading and how long we'd be here? Turns out, all our plans changed. Roy said he could help with installing the Radar!, So, we decided to stay here a few more days.
Later in the afternoon, we were surprised to see a National Geographic boat come in. A few minutes after they tied up, they held a fire drill, all we could here after the alarms, was laughter! A bunch of crazy scientists I guess.
So... our run to La Paz is put off. It sounds like the Northerlies will be getting stronger in the next few days anyway,.... and.... we found Roy! He's a boat builder with 30 years experience, a positive attitude and a very fun guy. We feel lucky to have met so many helpful friends along the way!
Thursday morning, Roy came over and let me use his 4 to 1 to haul myself up the mast, and begin the installation of the radome bracket. We completed that around noon, and Roy gave us a ride to Loreto. We went to Augie's, a fisheman/sailor bar. We had Nachos con carne that were awesome!
I'm a little impatient, waiting for photo's to upload. It's taking a very long time... like 20 minutes, and two pictures still have not loaded! Sorry, no pics on this post, I'll try again tomorrow
