Greg is still working hard and trying to make the most of our time on the hard. Today was dedicated to the transducer and the props. He started cleaning them and was very disappointed to see that the advice from the guys at the yard wasn't working. In fact he was cleaning them with bleach and not acid (the bottles look similar)! After some more minutes of painting them with the right stuff they came back as new. Amazing!

We have some fishermen as neighbours and we asked them if they could have a look at the broken net. They came today and fixed it. We can't even see where the hole was.

The day was hot and we accepted the invitation from another boat to go to the beach. They came to pick us up. The kids enjoyed so much being in the water again.

Two more days on the hard are still planned. Getting there...
