I have not updated the blog recently as there is little or nothing to report.
My transmission began giving me fits when I was out at the Mamanuca Islands. It seemed to be very reluctant to go into forward. Reverse and neutral were not a problem.
I'd hoped it was only a linkage adjustment problem. No such luck. It seems my transmission is famous for this problem.
In a nutshell, the transmission has had to be taken out of the boat and is now at the machine shop getting fixed. I'm hoping it can be replaced in a few days as I'd REALLY like to go back out cruising.
There are no indications of any more Cyclones in the near future. The weather has been REALLY, REALLY, HOT! Getting back on the ocean would be a lot cooler.
More updates as they are needed. I hope to go back to Waya Island or Robinson Crusoe once I can get back into the blue!

I'm glad all is ok, I've been a little worried because things went so quiet. It's very strange, I've never met you, but I really enjoy hearing about your travels.
Hope you are back on the water soon!

Oh, Margaret, You are "Little Miss Thing" - well, I was wondering who was Little Miss Thing, but I'm
Margaret, and I'm not Little Miss Thing, and I do know Mal, and I am so happy to say he is my friend!
