Hi guys!

Happy weekend :) I'll keep this post super short. We're busy getting the last things ready aboard the boat. We're untying the lines Monday morning and plan to do a 2-4 jump up to Martinique (around 250 nautical miles from Trinidad). There is very little wind forecast, so depending on how long we're willing to motor, it might take a few extra days to get there. 

There is still no resolution with the genset. We'll have to wait until we get to the US, where we can get parts. I'm more than a little annoyed with a slight side of anxiety (on the off chance it's me who has messed up the installation). At the same time, I'm not willing to let this ruin our cruising season. We will have to run the main engine when we don't get enough sun. One thing is for sure: on the next boat, we will carry a lot more spares than we have room for aboard Athena ;)  

We better get back to sorting out the boat before our Monday morning departure. Don't forget you can follow us on our satellite tracker (https://share.garmin.com/saillife). Tracker is off right now but will be on Monday :) 

I hope you're having a fantastic weekend. Thank you so much for your support! :)
