Sometimes you just have to wait. #solosailor #islandlife #driplessseal

In trying to be cheerier, I set about cleaning the floorboards and the bilge, while managing the leak which we have slowed to 4 drips per minute. ( about a table spoon a minute). But to move on from a temporary fix I need to resolve three issues
1. Finding the part ( Dripless Seal) which should be relatively easy
2. Finding a harbor that has the equipment and willingness to haul wahine out for the repair. This is proving to be challenging as two have already turned me down
3. Winning an argument with the insurance company who suggested my repair is not covered.

At the end of the video I have some good news. In the meantime I explore the island with Hayashida san and partake in my annual ritual . . a Polar Bear Swim to bring in the new Year.
