We didn’t make it.

Well, we were halfway there motorsailing (again) and only making 3 kts. in 3-5 ft waves and 24 kts of breeze about to go over a coral head area, when our motor started making a bad noise. David in his infinite wisdom decided that we should turn around and check out the situation where we could actually do something about it. On the way back, we tried the motor again and it seems fine. David will dive the boat tomorrow and check the prop. Another weather window will probably come on Friday. We like leaving on Fridays.
