we sail

countdown now for departure on Tuesday morning we raise the moorings and we aim to tortuga. In these hours we still end up the last thousand things (connect the solar panels, galley to replace the rotating macerator, arm genoa, main and mizzen, to stock water, wash the boat, authorize ilsurf on deck, preparing the helm wind, load the satellite and VHF portable, prepare the grab-bag, pick up the raft overhaul, repair the main halyard winch clutch, release the spinnaker halyard taking advantage of a trip up the mast to the face etc. ... the "vacation"!). We split the duties, it is Leon and control the engine room crew.

We sail with Kudra (also for security reasons) and it seems so thrilling match race like last year, may the best win!

A tortuga'll be a couple of days and then off to Los Roques, where you will be Christmas and New Year perhaps, we shall see, depend on how many people there, any mosquito abundance of fish and other place, you can not do a long-term!

The important thing is to be there and live every day as if it proceeded the next day as if it had arrived the day before (sorry but the philosophy is late at night!).

WATER

bearings are! We've reassembled a heroic night with the help of valuable Matte and now the axis turns with a finger! Taken by the enthusiasm we have also replaced the bushing of the propeller shaft (again thanks to the insertion and removal epic work lathe Joel) and even after replacing the braided packing can say with pride to have a centerline "like new" (but hard!).

Today was the big day of the launch is always exciting when the boat travel lift raises the earth and carries it to the water! She shudders, and you tremble at the end of the meeting: Nicolandra enters softly in the embrace of Venezuelan waters and lies cradled by a slight movement, we climb aboard, the engine will not start because (I admit) I forgot to upload the batteries! No panic, we have an ace up its sleeve: Turn on the generator that does not betray and we are ready in half an hour, the engine pulls two clouds of smoke and sings smooth and powerful as ever!

Now

week of final preparations and the platform (water, electricity) and will last for many months, then finally just surf and nights at anchor.

Ready to go?

KING MANCIONE

mancione This is the part that lies between the rotating bearing (which means that instead of the propeller thrust shoot the same bow dinette simply push the boat forward) and card (which shall, interposed with the inverter, the motor shaft revolutions). Now, our main problem, identified thanks to the subtle skill of Matte (even more than he could to turn the propeller!) Is that the thrust bearing has come to an end and should be removed just to change the mancione. I remove the drive shaft, push back the propeller shaft (after having dropped a nut with a socket wrench unlikely that fortunately we had borrowed from an Italian immigrant of the '60s became the magician of the alternator as well as our supplier of black money ) and start removing the brazed mancione but that is not even remotely a unrivet think there is war! It should be noted that the battlefield is on the bottom of the engine room, below the 300 liters of diesel fuel tank, almost upside down, 35 degrees of temperature and relative humidity of 90%, a hike! After several hours of futile attempts I decided to ask for help to the site, but the mechanic Julio has no particular familiarity with the methods of construction of the Alpe and opts for a full replacement of the entire shaft, a quick consultation with the foreman joseluis and here is the verdict: work and berths in January (the expenditure does not even want to know!). Ok, then do it alone, even at this point because the alternative is to return home.

always comforted by Matte ("Do not worry, you should come out, I had the same thing on my boat and the end came, did not specify what happened two years later) proceed with the attack an extractor courtesy of Julio combined with another extractor design created for us by our blacksmith Joel thanks to the intercession of joseluis.

It took 12 hours of uninterrupted work, various combinations of light and heavy equipment, improvised solutions to tens of treacherous enemy attacks that hinder the progress, but eventually moved! Between the groans and creaks structural mancione moved and the first bearing has made its appearance. From then on it was a triumphant ride, the enemy was now on course even if resisted until the last inch of bearing and I undertook a couple of hours, but now the victory was certain! Celebration and jubilation!

To extract this point, the bearings from mancione we borrowed a hydraulic press joseluis between him and Matt and have never seen a mechanic who was passing by, we had the better of 35 years of oxide and salt.

The small detail is that we do not know if this bearing can be found here in Venezuela, we'll find out next week and then we will know if Nicolandra will be back in the water or in the store inpatient long!

You are all with us?!

HERE WE GO AGAIN!

And here we are again in Venezuela, Puerto la Cruz-yard NICOLANDRA TMO-boat!

The first thing to say is that this tour is new, we are three! With us it's Leon, one of our three cats, we have taken to follow because being poor, became diabetic needs some loving care and continuous (and especially two insulin injections a day).

The trip was eternal and devastating, I was sitting quietly at Frankfurt airport with the leash in hand (the other side, in theory, there must be Leon) when I saw the cat was as if nothing had happened by another party, after having freed dall'inopportuno link! No panic! At the airport in Caracas, exhausted, on the domestic flight is refusing to let us bring the cat in the cabin but they want put in the hold !!??! No way instead of the plane and take a taxi, 7 hours! Ok, panic!. After 26 hours of travel we are in an apartment with the children of Kudra that had preceded the week before, it's done!

Anyway, back to Nicolandra we found in excellent condition, as we expected but we will be working on the shafting, and we'll be in a separate chapter in the tragic and heroic aspects!
