It was 4 years ago in 2013 that Harry & I drove west in the van to visit Sue & Will. At that time, they were just passing papers on Miracle, a 30’ cutter rig Baba built in Taiwan. Click here for photos and details on the boat. Several years later, I had an opportunity to sail on Miracle but Harry has not so was really looking forward to it. Because we are a couple weeks ahead of schedule with the arrival of Jay & Jeanne on the 23rd, we’ve been able to get a sail in with hopefully more and lots of time to visit.
In the meantime, the van is plagued with an engine light issue that is not going away. All tests point to an O2 fuel sensor that has been replaced twice, 3 visits in as many days to a Bremerton Chevy dealer and 1 overnight in Walmart’s parking lot. For now the troubleshooting will be put on the list of things to do/fix when we get home.
S & E have decided to start the turn back east and we want to explore the northern side of Olympic National Park so sadly our paths won’t cross again until we get home.
