We were planning to leave for San Blas
this morning, but due to strong winds in the wrong direction, Thomas
suggested that we wait till the afternoon to monitor the weather, as
it may get stronger, and may not be advisable to leave as scheduled.
There goes plan for sailing! Seems like the boat will also not be operational for a while, as parts need to be replaced.
While waiting, Niklaus decided to do an
engine check, and it was at this time he found water had entered the
engine! Olivier came by the boat to check what had happened, and
discovered that the water pump had burst, resulting in water leaking
into the engine.

Probably a good thing that it happened
now, rather than when we were out in the open sea – don’t want to
be on a sinking boat, with no easy help at hand!
