Once again we may be getting close June 8, 2015

First and foremost Hinkley of Savannah are great. By 7:40 their mechanic had been on the boat, we did a sea trial, found the leak and were tied up. As we got up to about 2400 RPM water comes in the rudder post stuffing box.

The stuffing box is not a standard setup so they have to do some research then when they have a minute they will in theory fix it. They really give us the feeling that they are on our side along with being very competent.

Hopefully we will be on our way this afternoon and in Charleston tomorrow. Please keep your fingers crossed. By the way it is a beautiful sunny day. The temperature in Savannah is going to be 90.
