A day in port, a day of work

We got a few things done today, but it wasn't as productive as we expected, Linda did some laundry and I tried to replace the jib halyard, but literally hit a snag. The pin on the top furling section is half way out and wont let the upper guide slide down. I will have to go up the mast to tap it back in. Linda wants Phil to assist, so it looks like a job for Norfolk. I did replace the jib sheet (easy) which was really worn and I removed the fuel tank level sensor so I could access the tank. Found a couple of chunks, but mostly sludge. I understand it is diesel algae and is most likely the culprit of our fuel line issues. I will try to arrange for a fuel polishing in Norfolk. We walked to the grocery store and restocked our cooler. It was quite a hike especially walking back 2 miles with 40 lbs of supplies. We had some time to mingle with the locals and the other transients and enjoy a few cocktails and talk boat stuff. Not much else, Oriental claims to be a small drinking town with a sailing problem. So without further adieu, I present the next instalment of Louie's famous Pirate Jokes. (you'll need a coupe of drinks to appreciate these) I left some out- You can thank me later.
