USA, Miami, No Name Harbor - Still here doing R&M

We are still in No Name Harbor. The weather is sublime, and Nicholas is working on the batteries and electricity, and attempting to sort our problems from our Lightning Strike.

We currently have two of our four Inverters not working, and not sure if it is Lightning related or something else has gone wrong. So Nicholas is checking out the possibilities before sending the Inverters to Victron for Warranty Claims and/or Repairs.

I continue to do my daily cycles into Key Biscayne Village to collect packages from our postal box at UPS, and do my weekly shopping at Winn Dixie Supermarket -  looking quite like a Refugee.

We were treated to see the start of the Viper small boat regatta race, which started within No Name Harbor, after their lunch stop. Fun to watch!

We’ve started to see superb Sunsets. Crowds of visitors into Bill Baggs State Park daily, and gather at the Cleat Bar, with lots of cheering each night as the Sun sets

A pod of 4 dolphins came into No Name, and swam to, under, past, back under Meshugga. It gave me a half hour of pleasure!

So, No News,  is basically Good News. We continue daily to try get Meshugga into shape, to sail to Panama and onwards end of this year to French Polynesia. We have quite a lot of Upgrades, Replacements, not to mention the fall-out from the Lightning Strike to get fixed. 

Otherwise, All is well aboard the Good Ship Meshugga.

 

USA - Key Biscayne, Miami

Our first week in Key Biscayne, Miami has been slow. On Monday we moved Meshugga into No Name Harbor, and cycled to UPS in the Village to collect the first of many packages.

Nicholas is busy installing the Extra Additional new Batteries that arrived, redoing BMS’s and balancing batteries, etc. I’ve had a slow week with catching up on laundry, daily rides to the Village to WinnDixie, the supermarket, and UPS for seemingly a never ending delivery of Amazon and other boxes.

The weather is quite sublime after hot Guatemala. Days are warm to hot and humid, but night are delightfully cool, and some nights we actually put a duvet on the bed. 🤣🤣
