A visit from my son.

My son Mike flew down with his significant other, Kari, last week to spend some time and to see "Once Upon a Mattress" (featuring his Dad as the Wizard.) Although their visit was way too short, we had a great time and they got to see some of the Keys sights.
Here are a couple of shots of their visit.

Yep, they saw the Southernmost Point

Although neither of them is really a "boat person," they adapted quite well to the dinghy rides to and from shore and even managed to sleep well on board. Of course, being able to give them their own stateroom, small as it is, helped a lot to make them comfortable. One of the joys of a larger boat.
I think they had a good time. I know we all ate well including a breakfast at the Stuffed Pig!
On a somewhat less happy note, this week I discovered that two of the four motor mounts on the engine are broken. So now it's a trip to the Yanmar dealer to order a new set. I plan on replacing all four. If two went bad, can the other two be far behind? Then I'll have to figure out how to support the engine while I change out the mounts. At least it's "only" 350 pounds! And we now know the source of that vibration we were getting under power.
