Week 1

Hey guys,
So there goes the first week and it has been as hard working as it has been enjoyable. We're well through a lot of the major repairs that we had to do on the boat and as of today, WE HAVE POWER!!! Chris has been helping Glenn alot with all the electrics and mechanics of the boat and Benny and myself have been doing alot of the organising.

So far we are still on schedule to leave before the end of the month as we go through the systems that we need in place for our ocean passage. We have recently discovered that it is very important to have the ships papers with you when shopping in Spain (Dad and Benny had some minor difficulties explaining to customs that the washing machine we purchased was for a boat).

On the other hand we havnt had any major issues apart from the fact that I have been able to put myself through some form of painful experience at least once a day including sacrificing my body to get the price of a pineapple in the local Spanish supermarket.

I am still awaiting to get some good pictures to post, but look forward to them because they will be amazing ;)


Over and out,

The Mawali Crew
