Day 59 - Sept 22 – 28 2013 - SAILING !!!


Went sailing on Island Dancer!!!   We left at Midnight and motored all night into the east winds..   port engine shutdown after 7 hours..   It didn’t have much power only reving to 2200 rpm..  Star engine smokes black but runs good.. got some work to do!!!
Little Pico is freaking out.. I hold him on my lap ALL NIGHT.. he is shaking.. doesn’t have his boat legs!
Autopilot shutdown after 8 hours..   looks like I don’t have the battery charger selector in the right spot.. as it worked the rest of the trip without issue.

Culebra was our first stop.. beautiful..   very quiet place!!  Flamingo beach was awesome….   Rented a golf cart for $25.00..  so fun!   Lots of snorkling and good eats!

Over to Vieques for bioluminance night!! Ha..   ran into dolphins on the way.. so cool!!!   The bio-L was amazing!!!   
Little pico is a trouper now..  he loves sailing!!! No more shakking and loves me!!

Stopped at a cool little island on the way back for lunch..  then skipped back on a beautiful night, motor sailing..  seas were very light the whole trip, so not much wind for sailing… which is great for Pico..  but had to keep one motor on..
