8 April - Day #36. Finally the winds die down. It's cool out (mid 60s) which is great for getting some boat projects done: cetol touch up; bilge cleaning; water tank cleaning; and thoroughly check engine. The raw water line between the strainer and impeller pump was being chafed by the starboard, forward engine mount. Repositioning the line and adding some chafe gear took care of the problem. The weather must be better as several boats arrived in West End today. Looks like there will be two sailboats flying formation with us tomorrow as we cross the Little Bahama Bank to Sale Cay. Took advantage of XM radio's $5/month special and now we're a-rock'n tug. Cocktails with Pour Vous and Sea Island Girl. Early to bed because it's a 0700 departure tomorrow. 0nm today: 1092 total.
