Sea Star has splashed Our launch was certainly not without incident but we're very happy to be afloat again. On January 18, 2010 a tractor pulled trailer was used to transport Sea Star through Grenada Marine's boatyard. She was then picked up by the travel-lift and lowered into the sea at l300 hours. As we fired up the diesel to move out of the launch slip an injector gasket cracked. Barry ascertained the problem, scrambled ashore and miraculously was able to purchase a gasket from the Yanmar dealer, on site. By 1500 hours he had replaced the gasket, tightened it down, bled the fuel lines and we happily motored out of the slip. Not wanting to turn the engine off after the trial we had to get it going, we motor-sailed the 3 miles down the coast to our planned anchorage - Clarke's Court Bay. While underway we could smell a belt slipping on the engine, as well our depth sounder decided to quit just as we needed it to navigate through the entrance channel, between the reefs. Happily our good friend Neal on Dream Chaser was anchored just inside the bay and assisted us by radio with depth information. Our trials would continue this day as after anchoring we stepped below deck into ankle deep water. The packing in the stuffing box needed to be seated more than it was as the propeller had not been turning until we got into gear. We also found the pressure water pump leaking from the diaphragm. To add a fitting end to the day the wind caught the line on our man-overboard pole, tossed it into the path of the wind generator, bringing it to an abrupt stop. We've come to Clarke's Court Bay to continue repairs - today we added a few more items to the list.
