The Curse of Netflix Ends Well

I have been having major issues with Netflix via the laptop. I thought I had that fixed prior to this trip. I was wrong. We were very disappointed as we were hoping to get caught up on some movie watching. Frustrating! BUT this turned out to be a good thing, instead we turned to reading material on board. Me - Jimmy Cornell's World Cruising Routes. Tom - the stove manual. Seems there is a battery for the starter switch. The one that doesn't work. The one the previous owner said "starter switch doesn't work, just use a match.". Tom jumped into it the next day and got it working - yay!

Boat Cake

We have really enjoyed the first boat cake on s/v Honey Ryder.

  Ex-navy boy's comment was "moist.".

Dock neighbor's Kevin and Tyler agreed it was good. Food is just better on the boat.

Busting Up A Starbucks

There is no better coffee than fresh ground, fresh brewed and the best tasting coffee is always on s/v Honey Ryder.  By the way, the hand coffee grinder is working out well.
