We left Key West last Wednesday afternoon.  There was a good weather window, with minimal winds and calm seas predicted, so we came straight on through.  With three people aboard to stand watch, it was a snap.  Without really planning it, we wound up in Honduras.  It was one of the places we were talking about.

We have to make a repair on our engine manifold, so today we took a cab to town, and loaded up on parts.  This is a port town, so marine hardware availability is pretty good.  Sensing boredom ahead, our crew- Nick- set off for Utila on the ferry.  This is supposedly a lovely island- we passed it on the way in.  We'll probably catch up with him later on this week.

Cats are well; Tony fasted all the way here.  There were flying fish on the deck every morning for Cleo.
