Success!

Geoff did it. After about two hours in the engine bay (with no mumbles or swearing) he came out to say it was installed. Nervously Geoff turned the key and pressed the starter button and.... she fired up! Yay. Geoff of course wasn't that certain that it was sorted and said he would try again in the afternoon. Well, later that afternoon he tried it again and solid as, it started up. I of course was congratulating him on being a legend and resolving a big problem. But typical Geoff he just said 'we'll see'





The next step in confirming his confidence, is to let the battery get particularly low and try and start it again this morning. When it is a dead flat battery. I have utter faith it won't be a problem.





It's a beautiful morning here again. Going to be very hard to leave, but this afternoon about 3pm will sail off 85 nm to Huahine, where we will meet Christine on Sunday morning.
