| This is a week of reorganizing and doing maintenance before beginning the rest of our trip. Jay keeps a close eye on the engine and transmission. Can you find him tucked in behind the engine getting ready to change the transmission fluid? He says it is not getting any easier to get back in there! I may have to cut back on his daily cookie rations. |

| Looking down into the port cockpit locker shows Jay backing in under the cockpit to check the packing around the rudder shaft. |
 |
| Jay decided to trim a bit off the rudder shaft key thinking it may be rubbing and a bit long. We used the Honda portable generator and the MultiMaster tool and the dremel to smooth off the cut. We need to make sure Priority is in top running order as we prepare to leave George Town to begin heading north. |
 |
| Norma can start the dinghy motor all by herself now so off she goes for a little beach walk and to see what exciting finds may wash up on shore. |
 |
| Conch Beach in Red Shanks has a cliff of conch shells, each shell painted by visiting boats and left along the cliff. Amy brought paints when she came but we just got around to painting our family conch this week. Jay is placing it high on the cliff with about 100 others. This is probably a good farewell project as we prepare to leave George Town toward the weekend. We are excited about the journey north knowing we have new places to see and visit along the way. |
