If we had decided to do the bottom paint it probably would have been a lot cheaper (not sure there is a DIY yard in the Abacos, let alone one set up for liveaboards), easier and cheaper to get boat supplies/parts plus we have our vehicle there which would have been so handy. Hope you enjoy the pizza!

I can only imagine how ridiculously overpriced a haul out would be in Florida, but surely there was somewhere in the Bahamas you could have hauled out, and spend a few weeks on a beach. I just saw your pizza over at Lexa's blog. We are going to give your garlic and basil add a try tomorrow night on our pizza cruse.

Most of the stories I read are about the problems people have, and the money they spend... unless of course they buy everything new, which means they have a ton of money and they don't care about the money they spend. Plus, I have a fear of drowning. :-). I prefer to stay on land!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.travelwithkevinandruth.com" rel="nofollow">www.travelwithkevinandruth.com</a>Kevin Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05795747155781311686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717926498377706091.post-86059769312489504182017-04-14T07:28:04.964-07:002017-04-14T07:28:04.964-07:00Just last weekend we never even got out of the sli...Just last weekend we never even got out of the slip. We were going to partner with another vessel and cruise to our yacht club destination. I was in the shower and hubby was warming up the engines so we'd be ready to leave at the appointed time. When I returned from the shower he let me know that our port engine died and he couldn't get it started. Needless to say we stayed in our slip. Happens from time to time.<br /><br />Our mechanic knows what the issue is and will have it repaired in the next few weeks. He's pretty sure he'll have it fixed before our next club cruise.<br /><br />Sorry this happened to you. I do know the disappointment felt when your cruise plans aren't met. At least you're safe.<br /><br />Have a fabulous day and weekend. ☺Sandeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785788498697004273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717926498377706091.post-40931144751552072612017-04-14T07:26:59.923-07:002017-04-14T07:26:59.923-07:00That's good to know you can go to the Bahamas ...That's good to know you can go to the Bahamas and not worry.<br /><br />I imagine you don't use that grill when it's really wavy water.
